                Trade -Foreign Policy




                    Continuously promote Kenya as a favored destination for foreign direct investment (FDI) by
                    encouraging investments, promoting regional economic blocks, and leveraging Kenya’s hosting
                    international investment and trade conferences.
                    Formulate a policy framework to facilitate the return of all Kenyans stranded abroad and
                    streamline the policy framework for labor export.
                    Deepen Kenya’s famed athletics credentials offering training grounds to foreign athletes,
                    harness new expertise, experience, and knowledge among Kenyans abroad to advance and
                    promote Kenya’s interests abroad.
                    Expand Kenya’s market and demand for exports in the African Continental Free Trade Area
                    (AfCFTA), COMESA & EAC, and Sustain Kenya’s leadership role in East African Community and
                    AU to advance her economic interests regionally and globally.
                    Review Kenya’s development strategies to the global initiatives such as UN Sustainable
                    Development Goals and the AU’s Agenda 2063.
                    Design innovative economic diplomacy in light of BREXIT and post-COVID world order,
                    formulate an economic diplomacy blueprint to serve as a policy guide to all diplomats and

                    Continuously but progressively degrade the capacity of terrorist groups and reduce
                    radicalization among youths in the regions by adopting innovative counter-terrorism and
                    violent extremism measures.
                    Protect the inviolability of Kenya’s borders through sustained and constructive diplomatic
                    engagement to avoid diplomatic standpoints like Kenya-Uganda over Migingo and maritime
                    disputes between Kenya and Somalia by leveraging on Kenya’s position in international
                    organizations proactively.
                    Immediately establish a diaspora platform for Kenyans seeking to invest at home and increase
                    access to information about investment for sustainable development opportunities at home.
