DEVELOPMENT  PROGRAMME

Planning and Development Co-ordinator:   Mr. Hillary Korir


The Development office was established in 1973 following a recommendation report that was commissioned by the then Bishop of the Diocese, Archbishop Ndingi Mwana a' Nzeki. The purpose of the survey was to identify the people's development priorities and recommend ways of achieving them. Later in the year, Mr. James Wainana (now retired) was appointed the first Diocesan Planning and Development Co-ordinator.
 

Diocesan Development Policy

The policy is based on community's involvement in their own development. The aim is not to develop the people, but rather to facilitate the people in developing themselves. Emphasis is laid on self-reliance of the programmes and of the communities.
 

MAJOR OBJECTIVE OF THE DEVELOPMENT OFFICE

To facilitate the development of strategic and annual plans in line with the Mission Statement of the Catholic Diocese of Nakuru. To ensure effective and efficient implementation of programmes. To facilitate formulation of appropriate policy guidelines, structures and systems for effective coordination, development, allocation and use of resources.
