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 Sofia Majengo Clean-up on 17th Nov 2012

Friends,
On the 17th November 2012, we will host our last Clean-up Campaign for this Year at Sofia in Majengo. This will be the biggest Clean-up Forum we have ever hosted and we are simply loving it. Many Teams led by The City Council of Nairobi and the provincial Administration have confirmed their participation.
We will be posting all the Teams that have so far confirmed their participation with us.
We had a meeting with the Leadership of Pygron and St John's Community Centre last week, and we agreed that we are going to mobilize ALL the households in Sofia for this exercise. We will host a Consultative Forum with the Residents on the 8th November 2012 at 9.00am at St John's Community Centre to help plan the logistics for the day, and again, to discuss as we normally do, the three Thematic Areas that drive The Clean Kenya Campaign namely;
  1. Environmental Management,
  2. Peace Building and
  3. Good Governance.
We  are happy with the progress we are witnessing in Sofia, the levels of enthusiasm from the residents and the Youth Groups, and we are determined to show-case that Sofia, despite being an informal settlement, can be as clean as other parts of the Country. To this end, we are inviting the Cement Manufacturers to step forward and donate Cement for paving the neighbourhood. We are also inviting all those who feel that they can help out with sand and ballast to step forward. The Youth Groups in Sofia have offered to do the paving as their contribution to making Sofia Clean.
We are also inviting those who can give us seedlings, like the Greening Kenya Initiative, to step forward and donate seedlings to be planted by the residents even as we pave the alleys.
At The Clean Kenya Campaign, we believe in action. And we want to see this in all our Partners as we join hands to make Sofia a Clean neighbourhood.
As we close for December, other planning sessions will continue, for in January 2013, we will be mounting the biggest ever Clean-up Campaigns ever seen anywhere in the World. In partnership with several groups, we are putting last efforts into launching the University Students for a Clean Kenya, and tomorrow, we will be meeting with the Student Leadership at the African Nazarene University. Other such meetings are in the offing and soon, we are going to have in place the following groups;
  1. University Students for a Clean Kenya,
  2. Religious Leaders for a Clean Kenya,
  3. Teachers for a Clean Kenya,
  4. Doctors for a Clean Kenya,
  5. Architects for a Clean Kenya,
  6. Civil Servants for a Clean Kenya,
  7. Lawyers for a Clean Kenya,
  8. Jua Kali Artisans for a Clean Kenya,
  9. Sportsmen for a Clean Kenya, and even,
  10. MPs for a Clean Kenya.
Get in touch and let us drive this Campaign as a Team.
Let us all work for a Clean Kenya and a Clean Africa as a Transformative Deliverable as we turn 50 in Kenya.
