Core values
As an Kenyan diaspora-led organization, we believe that the Diaspora remains intimately connected to Kenya and has vested interest in solving the social, environmental and economic issues that impact their families, villages, cities, and counties. We believe that opportunities abound for innovation, social entrepreneurship, and impact investing. The Kenyan Diaspora collectively sends over US$4billion in remittance money annually. Of the unused remittance money, an estimated US$5-10 billion are available for savings and investments. Kda global Usa strives to be the platform that can strategically advise these funds to drive impact by Kenyans on the African continent.
We believe in the need for an intra-Kenyan voice for collaboration, including voices of Africans abroad. There are over 3 million Kenyans in the Diaspora, presenting countless opportunities for collaboration and community building beyond one’s own country. Developing a continental approach to building and strengthening diaspora relationships and partnerships is essential for moving Kenya forward. |
Friends
Since our founding we have been gradually building a network which permits us to harness the global intellectual capacity of Kenyans in the Diaspora and friends of Africa in order to promote business and economic development across the continent and the communities in which we live. |
