Kazi Mashinani Unveils Nationwide Plan to Create Jobs for Youth and Women

Kazi Mashinani Kenya has announced an ambitious nationwide initiative aimed at creating massive employment opportunities for young people and women through community-based economic projects.

Sharing data on the plan, the organisation’s chairman, Joachim Maragia, said the programme will focus on practical, income-generating ventures including fish farming, black soldier fly farming for waste management, smart garbage collection systems, food vending services, and brick production.

Maragia noted that the initiative is designed to promote sustainable livelihoods while addressing pressing socio-economic challenges such as unemployment, waste management, and food security.

He further revealed that Kazi Mashinani is targeting the creation of opportunities for at least 200,000 youth and women in every county through the rollout of these projects.

The chairman emphasized his willingness to collaborate with county governments, stating that he is ready to engage with any governor committed to improving the welfare of their residents.

“Any leader who is ready to understand the lives of their people should know that we have projects capable of empowering over 200,000 youth and women in every county,” he said.

The initiative is expected to complement ongoing efforts to boost grassroots economic development, with a strong focus on sustainability, innovation, and inclusive growth.
