The government is developing a legal framework to establish a welfare fund for Kenyans living abroad, aimed at providing social protection, emergency assistance and repatriation support, Prime Cabinet Secretary and Cabinet Secretary for Foreign and Diaspora Affairs Musalia Mudavadi has announced.
Speaking during an engagement with the Kenyan community at the Kenyan Embassy in Seoul, Mudavadi said the proposed fund would complement plans to create a Diaspora Bond framework designed to mobilise savings from Kenyans abroad for investment in national development projects.
He said the Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs is working with Parliament to develop legislation that will formalise the allocation of resources to support the growing Kenyan diaspora community.
