We shall continue to advance vital discussions on social protection, transparency, and youth participation in governance. These are not isolated efforts. They represent the beginnings of a systemic shift. They show that the public benefit sector is not merely surviving, but it is actively shaping public consciousness and influencing governance outcomes.
We remained anchored in principle and converted obstacles into strategic opportunities.
As we step into the new year 2026 and during the 1st quarter, we must remain firm and our focus must remain sharp.
We must rally behind three interlinked commitments, which are policy influence with integrity, youth integration and digital advocacy and Peacebuilding and cultural preservation.
We extend our deep appreciation to every organization across Kenya in every corner of our beloved nation,
The work our organizations, do in every field among them health, gender equality, education, environmental protection, governance, humanitarian relief, or community empowerment—continues to reaffirm the irreplaceable role of Public Benefit Organizations in shaping Kenya’s social and sustainable development landscape.

Despite a challenging socio-economic environment, Our PBOs (NGOs) have shown resilience, agility, and a profound sense of responsibility to the communities we serve.
Ladies and gentlemen, as we look toward 2026 and beyond, one-truth remains clear, No single entity can effectively address the complex challenges facing our society, Partnerships are no longer optional; they are indispensable, we call for partnerships—a call rooted in shared values, shared responsibility, and shared vision.
We invite both Local and international organizations we collaborate on cross-cutting programs and co-funded initiatives.
We further invite Academic institutions to collaborate with our organizations on research, innovation, and training.
We must deepen our collaborations with us in policy development, capacity building, and service delivery, development partners and donors to walk with us as we scale successful interventions and pilot new models.
Our goal is to build stronger, more inclusive, and more sustainable partnerships that enhance the impact of the PBO sector and ensure no community is left-behind.
