This plan identifies key policy actions, reforms, programmes, projects, initiatives and interventions that the County Government of Bungoma shall implement in the 2018 – 2022 period in line with its mandate, community priorities and the long term objective of Kenya Vision 2030. Accordingly, the theme of this CIDP II is ‘Transforming Bungoma County: Investment for a better tomorrow through good governance’. The plan gives priority to good governance as a tool to ensure sustainable implementation of the devolution agenda. The plan also aims to build on the successes and lessons learnt from the first CIDP, particularly in increasing investments in promoting food security, and increasing the scale and pace of socio-economic transformation through infrastructure development and strategic emphasis on economic, social, environmental, spatial, legal and institutional aspects of development. Under this plan, transformation of the county economy is pegged on modernisation of infrastructure, diversification and commercialization of agriculture, food security, wider access to quality education and skills, functional health system in terms of service availability, readiness and enhanced capacity to offer health services, wider access to national, regional and global markets for our products, entrepreneurship and job creation, provision of better and sustainable housing and enhancing coverage and functionality of improved water sources and sanitation.
