The National Conversation about Kenya Beyond 2030 is about the kind of country we want to live in and the country we leave for our children.
Seven year old Adrian Gweth wants to grow up in a happy and safe Kenya, where children can dream and have a real chance to make those dreams come true.
That is not a complicated wish. Millions of young Kenyans want the same thing, a country with jobs, opportunities, security, and a better quality of life.

Mogesi Maroa, a young leader from Kuria East, has grown up through the Vision 2030 journey and has seen Kenya change along the way. The National Development Charter is about taking what has worked, fixing what has not, and deciding where we go from here.
Building on the progress made under BETA, the journey to Singapore is within reach.
