Ndhiwa 2011 Community Open Day

Open days are community shows, whereby people from diverse economic disciplines, occupations, interests and specialization are brought together in a forum where they exchange knowledge in regards to their areas of expertise. 

During open days; groups, CBOs, extension service providers, organizations, farmers, companies, banks, businesses, individuals etc. are invited to come and exhibit their products and services so that they interact, ask questions and share their knowledge and experiences with community members.
The information generated is directed for consumption by communities who happen to be in need of the same for their social and economic empowerment.

There is fundamental call for a free flow and exchange of information from the book shelves, minds and practices of experts to the community. The knowledge generated in the process, serves as empowerment to tackle the challenging issues arising from food insecurity, climate change, poverty, education, health, environmental degradation, just to mention the least and that is why our this year's theme: Action Against Poverty, correlated

The magnitude of knowledge pool needed, calls for concerted efforts through networking, partnerships and collaboration by all actors in development, towards achieving the common call of tackling community needs and challenges. Thanks to all the partners like Sukari Industry LTD, CEABUD constructions LTD, Cooperative Bank of Kenya, Adok Timo Bank and any other person who saw this day be a success of which it was.
