Cohesion Talks Now Headed To Counties.

County forums on national cohesion and integration are expected to begin soon. The forums that will be a continuation of a 6-year peace initiative in the Country, were part of resolutions arrived at by stakeholders during the recently held Pamoja National Conference. They are expected to  provide an avenue to deepen the gains made in bridging ethnic divisions in the Country following the 2007/2008 Post Election Violence. Through County forums communities will be encouraged to speak candidly about challenges facing cohesion and integration in the country and come up with ways on how to confront them.

The development comes exactly a month  after the highly successful Pamoja Conference on national cohesion and integration. President Uhuru Kenyatta was among dignitaries who graced the event that was held in Nairobi. The Pamoja Conference was a culmination of the intra and inter ethnic dialogue forums spearheaded by NCCK. The  Conference brought together community elders, cohesion experts among others.
