In an op-ed, Azim Lakhani, the AKDN Diplomatic Representative in Kenya, writes that the story of the AKDN’s involvement in Kenya is one that is reflective of several principles: A long-term commitment to the country; a vision that looks past the horizon of a single crisis; a belief that multiple inputs from different sectors are essential to ensuring a better quality of life for Kenyans; and a willingness to adapt, be flexible and resilient in response to changing conditions. He explains that these principles guide the work of our respective agencies, and why we are involved in all areas of development in Kenya and around the world.
