📍From Kilifi to Doha: Bringing community voices into investment conversations. 🇰🇪🇶🇦
We’re live at the 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐮𝐦 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐢𝐧 𝐃𝐨𝐡𝐚, 𝐐𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐫, from 25–27 October!
At @ForIntegrityOrg (YIB), we believe investment should be about more than #capital flowing into #economies. It should also be about the #opportunities_created, the #communities_reached, the #institutions_strengthened and the public #resources_protected. As we engage with global conversations on investment, we’re keen to #learn, exchange #ideas and explore #partnerships that can strengthen accountable governance and community-led development back home in Kenya.
