Employment Creation
CAV in partnership with Betty Adera Foundation (BAF) and The Aquaculture Consortium (TAC) have organized a quick, creative and practical youth/women engagement process, dubbed ‘National Enterprise Development Initiative (NEDI). This is an economic empowerment platform supported by several organizations to help young men and women to systematically mainstream both national and county government development agendas. Establishing NEDI is one of the keystones that crystallize the plan that CAV and BAF seek to implement towards realizing the need to sustainably consolidate Youth and Women’s Socio-Economic Empowerment and participation in governance, in line with the government policy on economic recovery initiative post-COVID-19.
This is a quick, creative and practical engagement process, aimed at jumpstarting the County Youth and women Socio-Economic projects to be independently started and supported by myriad organizations to help them systematically mainstream in both national and county government development agenda, as well as donors and several other organizations, that support youth and women affairs.
First is to shepherd the youth and women to understand the benefits that come with the new constitutional dispensation of the devolved system and the national development agenda how they can benefit from the 30% capital resources allocated for youth and women empowerment initiatives in every county, funds distributed by international development agencies NGOs and other private organizations working on youth and women empowerment, through countrywide training and sensitization workshops.
