It's great when locals take up the mantle to bring change to their communities, what is greater is when local organizations come together. This is exactly what happened between SIR & KI4BLI (CBO) on 29 July 2024 when we signed an MOU that marked the beginning of a great partnership,

At State House Kenya, Nairobi, launched the Shirika Plan, a landmark initiative that integrates refugees with host communities in our country. This will upgrade our refugee management, shifting from humanitarian dependency to a more inclusive and progressive development model
