| dc.description.abstract | One of the most significant changes introduced to Kenya‘s national governance framework under
the The Constitution of Kenya 2010 was the creation of 47 county governments tasked with major
responsibilities in sectors like agriculture, health, trade, infrastructure, and county planning among others.
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. | en_US |
