This CIDP seeks to create and transform systems, structures and institutions within the County based on five key pillars of security, employment, education, health and urban planning that will light the way towards the birth and rise of Kiambu County. They will further inform all of the County’s plans and policies as we plan for immediate gains and long-term success. This first CIDP also paves the way for transparent ways of creating an effective performance framework based on strategy and output. It lays the foundation for developing a performance monitoring system replete with indicators, targets and timeframes, which will create an environment for effective management and a high level of service delivery. This document will form the basis for meaningful engagement with our citizens, development partners and the private sector as well as facilitate inter-governmental relations.
