| dc.description.abstract | TThe ADP contains priority development programmes and projects that have been identified for
implementation during the FY 2019/20. The projects and programmes are geared towards
addressing development challenges that the County must progressively respond to in order to
achieve its vision of “A wealthy County with happy, healthy and secure people”.
The plan was developed in a consultative and participatory manner in line with the constitutional
requirements for public and stakeholder participation in public decision making. In addition,
development of the plan took into account proposals contained in the Nyeri County Integrated
Development Plan (2018-22), Medium Term Plan III of the Vision 2030, respective Sectorial
Strategic Plans as well as Sustainable Development Goals.
Further, the plan proposes projects and programmes that will address the Big Four agenda namely
construction of affordable houses through promotion of the use of cheap and appropriate building
technologies and redevelopment of the existing housing estates. It has also proposed value addition
on agricultural produce so as to increase incomes and create employmemnt for the youth. In the
health sector, the proposed programmes and projects will ensure universal health coverage will be
a success. Through the proposed irrigation projects, water conservation measures, extension
services and provision of affordable farm inputs, food security will be achieved as we move away
from reliance on rainfed agricultural practices. | en_US |
