PREMIUM Beyond Vision 2030: Ruto hands Kenyans the pen to write their future The new conversation is intended to build a longer-term framework beyond the immediate priorities of the Ruto administration. News Just now Listen

Article President William Ruto will today (Wednesday), August 12 open what State House describes as a landmark national conversation on Kenya’s future, with citizens, rather than Government, expected to determine the country’s long-term development destination.

The launch of the National Conversation on Kenya’s Future Beyond Vision 2030, to be hosted by the Vision 2030 board at the Jomo Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC), is being presented as the beginning of a process to formulate a National Development Charter that is intended to outlive individual administrations, political parties and election cycles.

Instead, the report titled Developing a New Vision for Kenya: Towards a First World Nation is being treated as a starting point for a much wider national conversation.
