Executive Summary The USAID-funded Cooperative Development Program (CDP) in Kenya is a joint initiative among three individual projects launched in 2018 by Global Communities, the World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU), and the National Cooperative Business Association CLUSA International (NCBA CLUSA). Together, these 4 CDP Kenya | SSNA Baseline Report three organizations (known as the CDP Partners) and their complementary projects are working to strengthen the enabling environment that serves cooperatives and their members in Kenya by strengthening cooperative support institutions, improving business development services, providing capacity building services directly to cooperatives, and facilitating learning among cooperatives. The CDP Partners have partnered with Root Change to conduct a social systems network analysis (SSNA) baseline study of the cooperative ecosystem in 6 target counties where CDP Partners are implementing projects. The primary goals of the SSNA baseline were to 1) better understand the links among emerging and established actors in the Kenyan cooperative sector to help the CDOs identify potential and existing entry points for supporting cooperative networks and building capacity of cooperative support organizations, and 2) determine the most effective ways for the three CDOs to complement each other’s CDP activities. This report, more specifically, aims to summarize the links among emerging and established actors in the cooperative ecosystem, identify key actors and areas of collaboration to inform CDP Partners’ programming, and give recommendations for aligning collective strategies over the next 5 years. Summary of Study Purpose Together, we developed a set of learning questions to inform the data collection, analysis, and reporting for this SSNA baseline report. The seven questions explore the networks and perspectives of who is working in the cooperative ecosystem, examining the perspectives of cooperative businesses (including SACCOs1) and support organizations (i.e., government, businesses, financial institutions, higher-tier cooperatives,2 INGOs) who offer critical services to cooperatives/SACCOs. The learning questions also explore obstacles both groups face in seeking services and providing services, and actions or solutions to address these obstacles. Data analysis and reporting is also organized around a framework for understanding the cooperative ecosystem and the enabling environment conditions needed to ensure cooperatives can grow and thrive. This framework was adapted from USAID’s market systems resilience framework3, and Project Equity and the Democracy at Work Institute’s framework on key elements that support and sustain cooperative 1 SACCOs in Kenya refer to Savings and Credit Cooperative Organizations, which are financial cooperatives, sometimes referred to as Credit Unions. We have distinguished them in this study as the CDP Partners are interested in understanding cooperatives as a whole, and specific roles SACCOs or financial cooperatives play within the cooperative ecosystem. 2 Higher-tier cooperatives are organizations that support cooperative movement in a country, they include unions, federations and confederations of cooperative businesses. 3 Jeanne Downing et al., “Market Systems Resilience: A Framework for Measurement,” October 4, 2019, https://www.usaid.gov/documents/1866/market-systems-resilience-framework-measurement. 5 CDP Kenya | SSNA Baseline Report growth4. Root change used the cooperative ecosystem framework to structure the analysis, findings, and recommendations. Summary of Methods and Data Collection For this SSNA baseline report, we used mixed-methods data collection and analysis, which draws from relationship data surveys as well as stakeholder feedback and dialogue. The data was collected in all six counties using the same approach: ● Ushirika Hub Launch Events: Relationship data surveys were collected using Root Change’s online network analysis platform, called Pando.5 The CDP Partners launched Ushirika Hub6, a network map on Pando, across the six counties through in-person workshops with key stakeholders. Participants included cooperatives, SACCOs, county government, input suppliers,

  • Mutira Mission (1907-2011): the Birth of a Christian Empire in East Africa
    Mutira Mission (1907-2011): the birth of a Christian empire in East Africa Julius Gathogo Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Kenyatta University, Mombasa Campus, Kenya Abstract The tiny Mutira village in the then Ndia Division, Kirinyaga County of Kenya, East Africa, began as a Church Missionary Society (CMS) station, between 1907 and 1908 after Rev AW McGregor bought land from the locals. The mission work could not however take place until the end of 1912, as resistance by some dissatisfied locals forced the European mission team to temporarily abandon Mutira mission and migrated to the neighbouring Kabare and Kigari missions. This article begins by surveying the political history of Kenya, from 1895 when it was made a British protectorate and from 1920 to 1963 when it was made a British colony, and also during its post independence times (1963 onwards). The article sets out on the premise that the birth of Christianity in Africa during the 19th and 20th centuries came after a painful labour. In other words, European missionaries, with the help of a few Africans, who midwifed this painful birth deserve our special attention, as it is through them that a Christian empire was born in Africa. Introduction From the ancient times, east African coast has been visited by sailors, merchants and traders from the East. In particular, the fleets of the Phoenicians and of King Solomon frequented east African shores. The book of first Kings in 1 Kings 10: 22 is a clear testimony to the aforesaid statement: For the king [Solomon] had a fleet of ships of Tarshish at sea with the fleet of Hiram.

It does not represent a position from the United Nations. This report is posted on: http://ochaonline.un.org/kenya I. General Overview Development partners are insisting on the full implementation of the Waki and Kriegler reports to facilitate further development and put an end to impunity. Twenty-five diplomatic missions in Nairobi, including the US, Canada and the European Union countries have piled pressure for the implementation of the report whose key recommendations was the setting up of a special tribunal to try the financiers, perpetrators and instigators of the violence that rocked the country at the beginning of this year. The European Union has threatened aid sanctions should the Waki Report not be implemented. An opinion poll by Strategic Research Limited found that 55.8 per cent of respondents supported the full implementation of the report on post-lection violence. On 19 November, Parliament moved to chart the path of implementing the Waki Report by forming two committees to provide leadership on the controversial findings.
