The two-day national conference on the future of development and Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) funding in Kenya attracted key stakeholders and partners, who participated in a roundtable discussion about the shift in funding dynamics in the country.
The initiative, organised by the Nation Media Group in partnership with Public Benefit Organisations Regulatory Authority (PBORA), SDG’s Kenya Forum, and Strathmore University, was held at the Trademark Hotel in Nairobi. It offered a platform for NGOs, the government and private entities to share their views on the future of project financing, amid dwindling funding from the global stage.
