This week, Marsabit County Youth Senator Asha Bonaya joined a training on political negotiation, power mapping, positions vs. interests vs. needs, and BATNA - drawing lessons from Kenya, Madagascar, Senegal, and Nigeria.

Yesterday, our team held a strategic meeting with the World Bank - an important step in our ongoing efforts to open doors and expand opportunities for young people across Kenya’s counties.

Our minerals cannot be extracted while our people are leftbehindd.

Across Africa, we continue to call for meaningful youth participation.
It starts with opportunities like this, young people showing up, making choices and shaping topics and institutions that represent them.
Huge thank you to H.E. @DrWorkneh.

Strengthening Regional Cyber Resilience Through Cooperation
As digital transformation accelerates across Eastern Africa, cybersecurity is essential to protecting critical infrastructure, digital services, and regional connectivity.
Today, IGAD launched the Regional Cybersecurity Exercise (Cyber Drill Program) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, bringing together participants from across Member States to strengthen cybersecurity preparedness and regional cooperation.
Over five days, the programme will combine policy dialogue, hands-on technical training, and cyber attacks simulations to enhance incident response, improve coordination, and strengthen information sharing across borders.
Through EARDIP, IGAD continues to support Member States in building a secure, resilient, and trusted digital future.
