Youth in West Pokot County have called for involvement in economic initiatives, governance, and decision-making.
The young people emphasised the need to be given opportunities to shape the county’s future rather than merely being seen as recipients of development projects.
They voiced these demands during International Youth Week celebrations at Kachapin’s Garden, where stakeholders highlighted the importance of investing more in education, employment, digital opportunities, mental health, and sexual and reproductive health services.
