Stakeholder Meeting
DAYO will mobilize community to attend the planning meeting so that the organization can sell the concept to the community and the involvement of the jet keepers from the government aims, meeting will also raise issues that affect people and encouraging them to be active during the project period. In addition the meeting will also identify issues in three counties, such as, Bill of rights, the national land policy, devolution and leadership.
Capacity Building Training
The project will incorporate the key issues of peace, development, devolution, consensus building, reconciliation and civic education and security in the training curriculum and utilize the community trainers to provide training leadership these themes to county platforms of civil society.
Awareness, Communication and Information dissemination
The media contributes in a very major way to the perceptions that institutionalize violence and injustices across the globe. The project will therefore develop a very strong information, education and communication strategy to encounter the mainstream media and their images of violence and consumerism that sustains the unjust global system. In order to do this the following activities will be carried out:
• Work with Pwani FM local radio stations in the region to launch radio talk shows and programs on issues of peace, cohesion, security, and development and election conflict management.
• Development and generation of IEC materials that will counter global advertising, media stereotypes that promotes human insecurity and injustice.
• Use of performing art as a tool of passing critical messages to foster peace, youth empowerment and entrench constitutionalism .e.g. Bill of rights, youth policy, the national land policy, devolution and leadership.
The fact that Mombasa is a cosmopolitan city with porous borders in Kenya makes life challenging especially for the youth due to cross cultural interactions that has led to sex tourism, child prostitution, youth terrorism through al shabaab, drug and substance abuse, youth unemployment, negative ethnicity among other cross cutting issues. It is in this context that I decided to reach out to my fellow youth through community service which to me is a unique way of addressing problems.
i want to build partnership with other organizations around the world.
