Uraia Trust is implementing a five-year programme titled: ‘Strengthening Public Accountability and Responsiveness in Kenya Programme (SPARKe).’ The programme covers the period 2021 – 2025 supported by Danish Development Agency (DANIDA). The programme aims at contributing towards increased responsiveness and accountability in Kenya’s public spaces.
The programme strategy is focused on building knowledge and strengthening skills of citizens and duty bearers to promote constitutionalism, adhere to rule of law, and monitor service delivery. The strategy further supports government agencies to develop or review policies and legislations that enhance constitutionalism, rule of law and improved of service delivery.
Key Achievements:
- Increased accountability in the governance decision making process: The knowledge building and skills development for citizens and duty bearers has resulted in increased citizens participation in governance processes at national and county governance levels that has led to accountability in governance processes.
- Improved policy and legal environment at the national and county level: As a result of advocacy work undertaken by Uraia implementing partners, national and county government agencies have been supported to develop or review policies and legislations. This includes development of civic education frameworks, public participation laws, health and education sector policies at county level and election laws at national level.
- Improved service delivery in health and education sectors at the county level: Citizen formations engagement in monitoring and oversight of county government performance in the health and education sectors has led to improved service delivery.
