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.

The Eldoret Clean-up Campaign

Friends,
I must start by appreciating Sayari TV and Citizen TV Stations for giving the Peace Building Process along the Nandi Luo Border the kind of coverage they did. We need the Media to be part of us as we roll the gains towards a Comprehensive Peace Aggrement dubbed the Kibigori Chemase Peace Treaty which the people will sign at Kibigori on the 25th May 2012.

Secondly, I must thank all our Partners who made the events of last week be the success they were. We are thankful to people of Nandi and Luo along the common border, more so to Mzee Henry Rotich of the Nandi Gaa Kaburwo, Ex Chief Mzee Kipsutko Koech, Mzee Benjamin Chumo and Mzee Douglus Otiato- the Chairman of the District Peace Committee Muhoroni District for their efforts at finding an everlasting Peace Settlement.
Thirdly, we are very appreciative of the Government of Kenya, the National Steering Committee on Peace Building and Conflict Management and the Provincial Administration led by the 4 area DCs Muhoroni, Nandi East, Tinderet and Nandi South. We were impressed by your resolve to sort this Peace Business once and for all.
Lastly, we are appreciateive to our Team at The Monthly Nationwide Clean-up Campaign and the Centre for Community Dialogue and Development for the dedication they have put into this effort. We are moving the process to a conclusion and the Kibigori Chemase Peace Treaty will be signed by the people on the 25th May 2012 at Kibigori and it will be witnessed by senior leaders from Government as well as most of our Political Leaders.
We are inviting all Men and Women of Goodwill, People who believe in Peace to join us as we conclude this Peace Building process between the Luo and the Nandi.
