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 Kisumu Human Peace Caravan

Friends,
The Kisumu Human Peace Caravan was officially flagged off by Mr. Solomon Chazira- DO 1 Kisumu East on the 16th Feb 2013 at Bamato Grounds in Nyalenda. We then walked to Ka Chok for our 1st stop over. Our next stop over was at the Market- next to Oile Park just before the Round About where throngs of people from the Market and the Bus Park joined with us.

Mr. Vincent Shikoli, DO 1 Makadara Mr. Mayabi, SG CECAFA Mr. Nicholas Musonye and Odhiambo T Oketch immediately after The Mater Kayaba Viwandani Human Peace Caravan. Mr. Musonye was very supportive in hosting The Kisumu Human Peace Caravan with his support to The Administration Police Band
It was exciting seeing Mr. Audi Ogada rallying the people never to throw stones again. It was sad The Kisumu Human Peace Caravan was being hosted immediately after the Rt Hon Prime Minister Raila Odinga had just been stoned in Embu. We rallied the people never to retaliate when the other Presidential Candidates visit Nyanza and Kisumu in particular. And the leaders and people present accepted to marshal the residents not to ever throw stones in Kisumu.
We then matched to Kibuye and to Kondele Grounds.

Another Team lead by Bafope Development Trust and the Deliverance Church under Pst Mose Jasper had also matched to Kondele Grounds from Manyatta Area and they hosted a colourful Peace Concert at the Grounds.
Unfortunately, The Clean Kenya Campaign Team and The Administration Police Band had to leave immediately after the message from the DO.

We are appreciative to all our Team Members who made the event a success and we must appreciate the Royal Media for taking this Campaign to greater heights. To this extent, we want to appreciate;
  1. The National Steering Committee on Peace Building and Conflict Management/UNDP

  4. The Administration Police Band
  5. The Traffic Police- Kisumu
