NGOs in Kenya

The following introdution to NGOs in Kenya is taken from: "The Operational Environment and Constraints for NGOs in Kenya: Strategies for Good Policy and Practice" by Dr. Patricia Kameri-Mbote.



For the rest of this paper, please visit http://www.ielrc.org/Content/W00021P.pdf.

The NGOs of Kenya operate in areas including: Economic Empowerment, Charity, Advocacy, Health, Environment, Education, ICT, Civic Engagement, Foundations, Arts & Culture, Corporate Social Responsibility, and Research Think Tanks, to name a few. Since Kenya's Independence in 1963, NGOs have provided many of the social services that the government has not been able to provide. Moreover, NGOs have strengthened the civil sector to give the Government of Kenya the support and critical eye that it needs to progress.

Towards the end of the show, we will go on site to meet two of Kenya's top NGOs.
