Our Commitment to Responsible citizenship
AGENDA 2 Develop and launch a National Volunteers Network- Najitolea Kenya targeting young people to
In the next five years, we will:

help develop patriotism and identify the need for volunteers and give formal certification for
the work done.
Empower mechanisms for equality of representation and equality of citizenship through
reviewing existing relevant legislation and policy that will guarantee regional and ethnic
diversity of the people of Kenya.
Re-introduce National Youth Service training as a compulsory curriculum in the Kenyan’s formal
education to instill in the learner a sense of national ethos rooted in ethics, morals, and
integrity. The learners will not be able to graduate without having completed these courses.
Entrench ethics awareness, training, and accountability in the workplace. Every Public
institution, non-governmental organization, and the company will be required to develop an
integrity and ethics strategy that include training and safe ways to report infractions and make
it part of evaluating departments and managers.
Collaborate with religious groups, including churches, mosques, and temples, in strengthening
the national ethos by mainstreaming ethics training and awareness in their activities and
religious institutions.
Ensure that the mechanisms and attitudes in the Public Service protect Kenyans from exercising
their responsibilities safely particularly when willing to whistleblow or report a crime. Strong
whistleblower protection will be responsive and accessible communication channels manned
by reliable and trustworthy personnel.
Enhance Skin in the game principle under the public service code and citizen responsibility by
encouraging public servants and their families to utilize shared services in public facilities that
they develop and manage on behalf of all Kenyans. If it is good enough for Kenyans, it should
be goodenough for the public servant.
Utilize the duties articulated in the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights to develop
civic training on citizen responsibilities.
