Shaping the future: strategies for sustainable development in Kenya

This report outlines the developmental landscape of Kenya, highlighting its leadership in information technology and relative strengths in health and education, while noting that corruption and poor access to basic services hinder its progress.

• Kenya is a leader in information technology on the continent and possesses health and education systems that are well-developed compared to other lower-middle-income African countries, even though its average incomes are at the low end of that category.
• Development prospects in Kenya are negatively impacted by various corruption scandals and poor access to basic services, necessitating improvements in governance quality and the acceleration of service delivery.
