The ongoing grassroots leadership accountability and engagement forums in Kwale County, located in the Coastal region of Kenya, have proven to be an effective tool in bridging the gap between communities and their political leaders. This program, known as Kiongozi Maskani (Leaders at the grassroots level), is spearheaded by the human rights organization, Human Rights Agenda (HURIA). Its primary focus is to bring together political leaders and local residents at the grassroots level to deliberate, discuss, and engage with each other. The ultimate goal is to find amicable solutions to the various challenges faced by the local population throughout Kwale County.
