About Us
WHO WE ARE & WHY WE EXIST
Empowering Marsabit's Youth to Shape Their Own Future.
- We believe in building self-reliance through practical skills and entrepreneurship.
- We believe our youth must lead the fight for local climate and environmental resilience
- : We believe young voices deserve a real seat at the county decision-making table
- We believe that peace is the foundation of all youth development.
iThe Bunge La Vijana Initiative Marsabit Chapter is a vibrant, youth-led grassroots movement dedicated to transforming young energy into powerful community leadership. In a region as vast and diverse as Marsabit County, we serve as a vital bridge connecting local youth directly with the decision-making spaces that shape their lives.
We believe that sustainable development, lasting peace, and climate resilience can only be achieved when young people are active participants rather than passive observers. Our chapter brings together youth from all backgrounds and wards to collaborate, advocate for fair county policies, and lead local solutions to our community’s most pressing challenges.
