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.

Team Members- The Clean Kenya Campaign

I want to start by appreciating all of you for attending and supporting  The 2nd Consultative Forum on Waste Management that we hosted at the KICC on the 28th August 2012. This Forum was ably supported by;
  1. The Public Service Transformation Department at the Office of the Prime Minister,
  2. A Better World/SOF-DI,
  3. Akiba Uhaki Foundation,
  4. Mugumo Communications Ltd,
  5. National Environment Management Authority- Nairobi Office, and
  6. Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation.
The deliberations therein were very apt and we resolved on the following;
1.  Formation of a 2 level Think Tank to drive this process.
The 1st Think Tank will be made up of all the groups involved in waste management. The 2nd Think Tank will be made up of key Government Ministries relevant to Waste Management , Private Sector and the TCKC.
2.  Formation of a Media Strategy
3.  Formation of a Consortium in Waste Management.
4.  Structured Engagement with Government and  Development partners.
To help move this process forward, The CIA Club at TCKC has a structured Partnership arrangement based on the following categories;
A] Gold Members- These are Team Members whose support to The Clean Kenya Campaign is Kshs 1,000,000.00 every year. Currently, this Club has the following Members;

In this Club, you may give whatever support you want to The Clean Kenya Campaign and the majority of our Partrners are in this Category. We have documented this in our Website under Partners.
As we move forward with our structured engagement with all stakeholders in this Campaign,we will be reaching out to the various Groups and Teams that will be instrumental to the success of this Campaign so that we live the spirit and letter of the  Resolutions of The 2nd Consultative Forum on Waste Management.
The 1st two Resolutions will be adhered to within 2 weeks as proposed at The Forum. We are already working on this. The 3rd Resolution is ongoing and shortly, we will be inviting the select Team for Action. The last Resolution is an everyday affair, and it will be on-going as we drive this Campaign forward.
As I invite you to be part of this Great Transformation taking place in Kenya in our time, our Programmes across Kenya will continue as defined in our Work Plan. This Saturday the 1st of September 2012, we will be joining with the Kiambu Team of The Clean Kenya Campaign in launching the Monthly Kiambu Clean-up and Awareness Campaign.
Then on the 15th September 2012, we are all invited to a Massive Clean up Campaign in Kisumu dubbed The Kisumu 15th September. This Campaign will be marshalled by His Worship the Mayor of Kisumu Cllr Sam Okello, the Town Clerk Mr. Chris Rusana with technical support from the Director of Environment in Kisumu Mr. John Sande and the KICOCEN Team.
In October 2012, we will be in Eldoret. In November 2012, we will be in Nyeri and on the 6th of December 2012, we will host a Major Review Forum at the KICC to take stock and appreciate Best Practices from across all Kenya.
All the foregoing Awareness and Clean-up Campaigns are geared towards mobilizing and sensitizing Kenyans towards working for a Clean Kenya.
Let us all work for a Clean Kenya as a Transformative Deliverable as we turn 50.
