As we embark on the 3rd year of implementing our County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP) III, I am pleased to present the Kisurnu County Annual Development Plan for the fiscal year 2025/2026. This plan represents our unwavering commitment to our theme, "BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE," as we consolidate the gains made and initiate new programmes and projects to propel our county forward with an aim of building a vibrant and prosperous Kisurnu County, grounded in the principles of equity, inclusivity, and sustainable development. As a result, our vision for Kisumu County remains clear and ambitious. We aim to create a prosperous, globally competitive county where all citizens enjoy high-quality lives in a clean, secure environment. This Annual Development Plan outlines our strategic approach to achieving this vision, focusing on ten key areas that will drive our county's growth and development. From revitalizing agriculture for food security and agribusiness to promoting industrialization and a vibrant service sector, our plan addresses the core needs of our people while positioning Kisumu County for sustainable economic growth. We recognize the importance of a healthy population and have prioritized healthcare and environmental cleanliness. Our commitment to building modern physical infrastructure will enhance connectivity and stimulate economic activities across the country. In this plan, we place a strong emphasis on human capital development through skills development and innovation. We understand that our youth are our greatest asset, and by investing in their education and creativity, we are investing in the future of Kisumu County. Additionally, we are dedicated to conserving our environment while strategically developing our lakefront for business opportunities, striking a balance between economic growth and ecological sustainability.
