The Constitution of Kenya 2010, Vision 2030 and its Medium Term Plans (MTPs) together with the First County Development Profile provide the foundation for the preparation of the Elgeyo Marakwet First County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP). Apart from being a development master plan for the county, the CIDP will provide a framework for coordinated development, unified development planning, the basis for annual budget financing, the platform for effective and efficient implementation of projects and programs, and the mechanism for measuring performance. Led by the County Governor and his deputy, the CIDP was prepared by a County Steering Committee constituting the County Executive Committee (CEC) members, government technical officers and consultants in close collaboration with various stakeholders which included government departments, civil society organizations, community groups and private sector representatives. As provided in The Constitution, this document contains findings and inputs from Wards, Sub-Counties, and County Professionals in Diaspora including those in Eldoret, Nairobi, and those outside the country. The data was successfully collected through organized meetings by the county government leadership and memoranda submissions via posts and email. The views of county and nationally elected leaders were also captured in these meetings. Sector experts, heads of departments and professionals in different fields spent time going through the different sectors’ development propositions from the consultative forums. The objective was to enhance local participation (bottom-up approach) in project identification and formulation, planning, resource mobilization, evaluation, and implementation and monitoring, hence laying down a foundation for the achievement of equitable development within the county. 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z https://repository.kippra.or.ke/handle/123456789/881 Elgeyo Marakwet County Integrated Development Plan 2018-2022 County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs) are Plans prepared every five years as development master plans. They create a framework for planning, coordinated development, budgeting, effective and efficient project implementation and progress performance measurement. The Plan outlines the county situational analysis, linkages to other national and international plans, review of the achievements of the immediate previous Plan, prioritized sector programmes, implementation framework, resource mobilization strategies and monitoring and evaluation framework. Elgeyo Marakwet County is one of the County Governments in Kenya created under the new two-tier governance system, i.e. national and county systems created by The Kenya Constitution 2010. The County Government started implementing its mandates in March 2013 as per the provisions of the Fourth Schedule of the Constitution which came into effect in August 2010. Agriculture, health, education, trade, infrastructure, and integrated county development planning are some of the mandates that the county assumed the responsibility of, immediately the constitution was operationalized. 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z
