KENYA COUNTRY PROFILE & PROGRAMMES
Continued
Programme Overview
Schools in Kenya reopened in January 2021, and together with our partners, we welcomed back
a total of 15,984 children to 28 primary schools. The addition of 8 schools (4 in Kajiado and 4 in Turkana) included in the Kenya Inclusive Quality Education programme was made possible as a result of favourable exchange rate gains. We spent €505,240 on programmes to educate, empower and enable the poorest and most excluded children.
The generosity of all our donors and the commitment of our partners enables Aidlink to continue our work in Kenya.
Thank you.
