Institutional Strengthening, Networking & Capacity Development

PELUM Kenya is a member-driven network with 56 Member Organizations across 42 Counties in Kenya. The network's vibrancy is essential and vital for relevance and sustainability. PELUM Kenya is a network that understands that there is a need to strengthen and improve the capacity of network members for learning and information sharing of Agroecological practices. This involves training of member's organizations, monitoring, and Evaluation visits to support member organizations in the implementation of joint activities. The capacity building also entails enhancing the capacity of PELUM Kenya Secretariat for improved service delivery based on gaps identified during PELUM Kenya staff performance appraisal and Human Resource capacity needs. PELUM Kenya endeavors to achieve this strategic theme through conducting Training Needs Assessment (TNA) and Training on the gaps, organizing for capacity building Trainings based on identified needs for the network and Secretariat; strengthening resource mobilization skills to ensure adequate funding and resource base for the network and individual Member Organizations; and, improving and strengthening the governance of the network and individual Member Organizations. All our activities will be geared towards targeting PELUM Kenya Network including Member Organizations, PELUM Kenya Board Members, and Secretariat. PELUM Kenya will invest and tap on the wealth of knowledge from the network and source outside whenever the need arises within the next five years (2021-2025).
