Building community networks in Kenya

Emergence of Kijiji Yeetu

As Kijiji Yeetu points out, there is a need to explore new prospects through digital and conventional social models. This is taking place in Kenya, where the government is designing and reengineering the governance of public resources and power. As a result of globalization, transnational crime, climate change, digital technology, and media, local economies have evolved into new shift layers. The implications of the village project model are appropriate in consideration of the SDGs in Kenya, Africa, and beyond. Kijiji Yeetu continues to promote a multi-stakeholder, collaborative strategy that utilizes design thinking and systems thinking methods to address development challenges and provide innovation solutions for local communities.
