Kenya Vision 2030

[1][2][3] Developed through "an all-inclusive and participatory stakeholder consultative process, involving Kenyans from all parts of the country," the Vision is based on three "pillars": Economic, Social, and Political.

[4] The Vision's adoption comes after the country's GDP growth went from 0.6% in 2002 to 6.1% in 2006,[5] under Kibaki's Economic Recovery Strategy for Wealth and Employment Creation (ERS).

Detailed analysis was carried out under a consultative process in order to come up with strategies capable of resolving the social and political problems that Kenyans face today.

It is also addressing other key constraints, notably, a low savings to GDP ratio, which can be alleviated by drawing in more remittances from Kenyans abroad, as well as increased foreign investment and overseas development assistance (ODA).

The informal sector is being supported in ways that will raise productivity and distribution and increase jobs, owner's incomes and public revenues.

Under LAPSSET A key deliverable Under vision 2030, Isiolo Airport is complete as of 2017, while Konza City and Lamu Port have received renewed interest in 2018.

This include Garden city and TRM on Thika Superhighway, Two Rivers Mall along the Northern Bypass and Limuru Road.

Investments in technological hubs have led to Nairobi being termed as Africa's Silicon Savannah with products such as M-pesa getting acclaimed globally.

Exploitation of mineral wealth with major discoveries in gold, oil, coal and rare earth deposits, among others, presents a big boost towards funding.

These policies (and those in the economic pillar) are equally anchored on an all-round adoption of science, technology and innovation (STI) as an implementation tool.

It hopes to transform Kenya into a state in which equality is entrenched, irrespective of one's race, ethnicity, religion, gender, or socioeconomic status; a nation that respects and harnesses the diversity of its peoples' values, traditions, and aspirations for the benefit of all its citizens.

"People-centered" goals refer to the system's responsiveness to the needs and rights of citizens, whose participation in all public policies and resource allocation processes are both fully appreciated and facilitated.

To meet objectives outlined in the economic and social pillars, Kenya's national governance system is being transformed and reformed to acquire high-level executive capability consistent with a rapidly industrializing country.

The country is adopting a democratic decentralization process with substantial devolution in policy-making, public resource management, and revenue sharing through devolved funds.

During the life of the Vision, strategies and action plans are expected to be systematically reviewed and adjusted every 5 years in order to respond to the changing environment.
