Professional Associations Engagement - Ongoing Project
The project is a civic education and accountability initiative that engages professional groups as key actors in strengthening democratic governance in Kenya. It maps and analyses professional organizations—including regulators, councils, associations, and umbrella bodies—to understand their mandates, influence, and potential for civic engagement. Through research, dialogue forums, and capacity-building activities, the project supports professionals to participate more effectively in public accountability, policy advocacy, and civic education at national and county levels.
The Aim of the Project
The project aims to equip professionals with accessible civic knowledge, practical tools, and platforms for collective action, fostering informed participation, issue-based engagement, and a more accountable, inclusive, and responsive democratic system.
