We are proud to have concluded the Cross-Border Community Resilience (CBCR) Project inception meeting for the Moyale cluster! This important gathering fostered open communication and strengthened partnerships between grantees and CBCR, providing clarity on grants compliance, technical aspects, monitoring and evaluation, sustainability, and effective communication strategies.

At Strategies for Northern Development (SND), we are committed to delivering high-quality, impactful service in this initiative, ensuring that our work enhances resilience and reduces reliance on humanitarian aid for communities in the cross-border corridor of Moyale-Moyale. As the backbone organization for the Moyale cluster, SND will continue to lead with dedication, empowering local communities through inclusive, locally-led development solutions.

Through collaboration with @USAIDKenya, @Chemonics, @acdivoca and our local partners, we remain dedicated to fostering cross-border cooperation, improving livelihoods, and addressing conflicts to build a more resilient future for all. Together, we are laying the foundation for sustainable development and empowering communities to overcome the challenges they face.

Thank you to all our partners for your support and collaboration. We look forward to the journey ahead!

Since we launched donkey care clubs in 2004, they’ve become recognized extracurricular activities in Kenya!

Running weekly, these fun lessons teach children the importance of donkeys for their livelihoods and how to care for them.
