Opinion: Young people belong at the centre of county planning
When young people help shape local priorities, the plans that follow are more likely to work for them.
Opinion: this piece reflects the author’s view. It is not a news report or a statement of verified fact.
Most of Migori’s residents are young. Yet the forums where local priorities are discussed can feel distant from the people they most affect.
Participation does not have to mean long meetings. It can be a short idea submitted from a phone, a story about a local business, or a question at a ward forum. Each one adds to a clearer picture of what residents actually need.
This platform is one attempt to make that easier: a place to share ideas, find opportunities and see information backed by sources.
