What is the long term solution to recurring
droughts and starvation in Kenya?
Dr.
Elijah Korich, founder and chairman of Keiyo Soy Ministries (KSM) believes it
requires empowering communities and assisting them in
identifying and developing local resources.
Ascertaining sustainable development in rural Africa can only be
achieved by engaging individual communities in the development of their
local resources.
Preservation of natural resources,
water catchments, preservation of forests, planting of trees, food
self-sufficiency, crop production, livestock development, water
development and irrigation, public health clinics, education, and local
capacity building are among the activities Keiyo Soy Ministries is striving to achieve in
the next five years.
Income generating development includes production of crops for local
consumption and cash crops like coffee, fruits for local markets, and
eventually the exporting of these products will provide communities with
foreign currency.
