In preparing this plan, considerations have been made to Vision 2030, Medium Term Plan 2018-2022, and The Big 4 Agenda of the National Government Executive. This plan is an important tool that sets priorities, helps us focus energy and resources, strengthen operations, ensure that we are working towards common goals. It will also help us establish agreement around intended outcome as well as assess and adjust our direction in response to a changing environment. The Strategic Plan articulates areas of development which demand special focus as priorities within the framework contained in the overall national government development Strategy: the National Government Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF) Act, 2015. In this connection, issues to be focused on will be (i) Promotion of Education and Training, (ii) Access to clean Water and Sanitation Services, (iii) Ensure food and nutrition security through agri-business projects, (iv) Ensure universal health coverage, (v) Employment creation through manufacturing projects, (vi) Promotion of sports and creative talent, (vii) Enhance administration and security and (viii) Governance and Resource Mobilization. Positive leadership has been identified as necessary ingredient in propelling the constituency community to higher levels of development and to this end, the people of Rongo must be urged to ensure that the gains made and the political goodwill that exist are factored into our development agenda. We must all pull together and have a committed sense of direction if Rongo Constituency is to be the model Constituency that we all would like to be proud of. It is my hope that with the support of constituents, and all stakeholders, this Strategic Plan would be successfully implemented to uplift the standards of living of the people of Rongo. HON.

MAUREEN AUMA The Chairman, NG-CDF Rongo Constituency Rongo Strategic Plan 2018-2022 iv NG-CDF Rongo Constituency Strategic Plan: 2018/2022 PREFACE It is my humble pleasure to write this preface for the Constituency Strategic Plan 2018-2022 The Strategic Plan aims at putting in place a structured procedure for implementing Development Projects which are consistent with the NG-CDF Act, 2015. I do not need to emphasize that NG-CDF funds alone cannot be adequate for all projects in the constituency; other Development Partners, identified herein, shall be called upon from time to time to fill the gap. Further, the Project Management Committees being the key implementers of the Projects shall be sensitized to understand their key role to avoid scenarios of misappropriation of funds, and therefore wastage. I look forward to working with all stakeholders in implementation of the Strategic Plan.
