Welcome to KCDN

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.

KCDN meets Kepsa, Brand Kenya Board, Ministry of Environment and Public Service Transformation Depatrtment

Friends,
On behalf of The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign Team, I want to sincerely thank the CEO at Kenya Private Sector Alliance Ms Caroline Kariuki for the meeting we had with her today at her offices. I also want to sincerely thank Ms Soraiya Shariff from the Public Service Transformation Department for making time to join us in the meeting.
This was a step in the right direction since Kenya Private Sector Alliance have been partnering with Public Service Transformation Department in driving the Transforming Kenya Initiative. The Clean-up Campaign is hence coming in handy in this partnership.
We were really impressed with how quickly she absorbed the concept and her desire to make it work in a sustainable way. We are looking forward to the great benefits that will be associated with this Campaign such as;

  1. The need to invite investors to come up with Waste Recycling Plants across the 47 Counties as an economic activity as well as a job creation opportunity- this will be defended by the people to put at bay all vested interests,
  2. The investor support in placing Litter Bins across our Major Cities as they advertise in the same spaces as well,
  3. Mobilization of Media, Sports, Business and Music Personalities to be in the front line in helping with the sensitization efforts for the Campaign
  4. Sustained media and publicity for the Campaign,
  5. and the prospects of crime reduction as a consequence of enhanced awareness in a clean environment.
Under the Public Private Dialogue, and working in close partnership with several agencies, we have that firm conviction that The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign is going to be the next big thing that will lead to Transforming Kenya into realizing the Kenya Vision 2030.
In the same vain, we want to thank the CEO at Brand Kenya Board Ms Mary Kimonye and her Team whom we met with yesterday.
LR; Ms Njau, Mr Odhiambo, Ms Kimonye, Ms Muchiri, Mr. Kivindyo and Dr Nzilu
Many thanks also to Mr. Emmanuel Lubembe and his Team at The Public Service Transformation Department whom we also met for very fruitful discussions at their offices at KICC yesterday.
Earlier on Friday, we had paid a Courtesy call on Dr Alice Kaudia- the Environmental Secretary at the Ministry of Environment and Mineral Resources.
We must sincerely thank the Team that have dedicated their time to make this Campaign a reality as we continue to build more Partnerships.  We firmly believe that we all have some part to play in this Campaign and it surely Starts With Me.
We at KCDN firmly believe that we the People of Kenya can help Clean Kenya.
This is a campaign for Kenya by Kenyans. Let us make it a huge success......
If it is to be, it is up to me. A Clean  Kenya  Starts With me. A Peaceful Kenya is my Responsibility.
Disclaimer; The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign is about us Kenyans. It involves all Kenyans from the various regions, religious persuasions, political thinking and we do not discriminate against any Kenyans nor any region.

Peace and blessings,


Odhiambo T Oketch
