Inclusive Governance - VYBE Africa

What is Inclusive Governance?

It refers to a system of decision-making where all stakeholders—regardless of their background, identity, or socioeconomic status—have a voice in shaping policies, laws, and institutional practices.

Budget Forums

Training youth to analyze county budgets and submit memorandums during public participation.

Civic Education

Simplifying the constitution and county acts for rural communities to understand their rights.

Social Audit

Community-led monitoring of development projects to ensure value for money.

Why We Focus on This

In West Pokot, exclusion has historically led to poor service delivery and inequality.

Barriers to Participation

Limited Youth Involvement

Young people are often sidelined in county planning and budgeting processes.

Cultural Norms

Traditional norms can marginalize women and youth from leadership conversations.

Low awareness of rights and inadequate platforms for citizen feedback.
