Uasin Gishu County Integrated Development Plan 2023-2027

Abstract

The 2023-2027 Uasin Gishu County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) is the third plan to be prepared by the County since Kenya ushered in a devolved system of government and the first for the current administration. The CIDP has been developed pursuant to section 108 of the County Government Act, 2012 to provide a framework for planning, budgeting, funding, monitoring and evaluation of programmes and projects for a five-year period. The CIDP (2023-2027) is anchored on three pillars: Service Delivery, Enablers and Empowerment, and is expected to transform the county into a county of opportunities for all in Kenya and beyond as envisioned in the Nguzo Kumi manifesto of H.E., the Governor. The service delivery pillar will seek to restore the dignity and quality of public service; the enablers will act as support systems for attaining the targets of the CIDP, while the Empowerment pillar aims to broaden economic opportunities for all the residents through job and wealth creation. The plan also seeks to increase the participation of women and youth in socio-economic activities. The plan is also aligned with the national aspirations as contained in the Kenya Vision 2030 and its Medium- Term Plans, and international obligations such as Sustainable Development Goals, AU Agenda 2063, Paris Agreement on Climate Change, 2015, EAC Vision 2050, ICPD25 Kenya Commitments, and Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (2015 – 2030), among others.
