The strategy focuses on transforming education for marginalized communities in Kenya through a series of innovative and cooperative activities. One initiative involves organizing national prayers for the APBET community. For example, this entails coordinating with religious leaders and ensuring accessibility to increase community participation. It also includes logistics, such as venue setup and media coverage, to amplify visibility.
Another aspect is conducting financial empowerment workshops with a lens on saving and investment. For instance, it involves collaborating with financial experts to facilitate sessions and organize efforts, such as starting a SACCO membership drive, ensuring effective engagement and follow-up.
Lastly, the strategy includes policy sensitization and leadership elections. For example, workshops aim to enhance understanding of education policies like the Competency-Based Curriculum. By encouraging leadership participation, the strategy fosters community involvement and transparency in the election process, thereby strengthening grassroots governance.
