Welcome to KCDN

This is KCDN, an Environmental Management, Economic Empowerment and Poverty Eradication Civil Society.

We welcome you to our site. Kindly feel free to share with us your thoughts. Ideas that add value will be appreciated. Ideas that want to make us improve our physical environment will be welcome. And more so, ideas that redirect us from the lost cause will be of immense value.

It is us who will improve the lot of our Environment, our Economy and make Kenya a Clean Country, where People join hands to work for our own Economic Emancipation and where Municipal Solid Waste Management is looked at as a resource, not as waste.

We need to set the standards in this region of the World and become the referral point in how a people can join hands and work for their own Economic Liberation, where waste can be used as raw material and become a source of employment for our people.

Our collective actions will surely make a difference. This is why in partnership with our Key Strategic Partners- The Public Service Transformation Department, the National Environment Management Authority, the Ministry of Environment and Mineral Resources, the Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation,other key Ministries, the Local Authorities in Kenya, the Provincial Administration, A Better World, Akiba Uhaki Foundation and other Partners, we are moving deliberately in sensitizing and mobilizing Kenyans to work towards A Clean Kenya where waste is separated at source.

And this is why we are inviting Kenyans to join with us in The Clean Kenya Campaign and be a Member of Kimisho Sacco Society Ltd

Welcome.

We are very strong

Dear Friends,

Following the forced break-in in to our offices last weekend of 6th and 7th March 2010 as we were hosting the Post Election Violence Photo Exhibition and discussions, we have received pledges of support to keep us on track.

We have been given temporary shelter at Victory Centre Church and all our programmes remain on course.

In the meantime, we have received a Grant from Akiba Uhaki Foundation to help us develop a 5 year Strategic Plan. We are very thankful for this support, coming at a time when we have just had a forced entry into our offices.

We have also received pledges of financial support to help us come back to our foot from members of Friends of KCDN. We know many more people of goodwill will come forward and give us support at this our hour of need. We thank Mary Njeri [Covaw], Dr Matunda, Janet Mafunga, Danny Olela, George Nyongesa and many more friends who have stood with us in solidarity.

We are starting all over again from the basics; chairs, tables, computers, stationery.. ....

The task ahead of us is real gigantic and we need all support and prayers. Temptations will come along the way and for us at KCDN, we must remain focused on our goal as we deal with the side shows. Peace, National Healing and Reconciliation is of much more paramount impaotance to us than the side shows meant to derail us. We are determined to come out of it much more stronger; with your support, partnership and prayers.

And above all; God is with us.

We have given the Police and the Provincial Administration until Wednesday 17th March 2010 by which time if they shall have made no arrests and recovery of our items, we will resort to the next course of action.

As our Friends, we pray you stand in solidarity with us as we address this act of blatant impunity and aggression on KCDN.

In May we will be in Dandora for a Peace Exhibition before converging at the Calvary Convent Church Grounds in Komarock on 12th June for the 3rd Annual KCDN Peace Run/Walk. On this day, we will host a free Breast Clinic for the women in partnership with Getrude's Children's Hospital.

Peace and blessings be upon all of us.
