Anticipatory governance, foresight and systems thinking can help Kenyan institutions and citizens respond to democratic pressures before they become crises.

What is anticipatory governance? It's about recognising emerging trends and preparing institutions and citizens for uncertainty before pressures become crises. This is a central theme of our #IDD2026 dialogue in Nairobi.

We're proud to bring together government institutions, youth movements, civic tech innovators, media and academics for our #IDD2026 dialogue. No single actor can solve the challenges facing our democracies. That's why this conversation matters. #FuturesInFocus

Passing a law is only the first step. What matters is whether it delivers. @WFD_Kenya is supporting the County Assemblies of Machakos and Makueni to pilot Post-Legislative Scrutiny of their Climate Change Acts, strengthening oversight of implementation with county-based CSOs.

CSOs in Embu, Machakos & Makueni are now better equipped to analyse county budgets through a gender and inclusion lens. @WFD_Kenya recently delivered a Gender Responsive Budgeting training for civil society organisations across the three counties.

Participants strengthened their skills in budget analysis, evidence-based advocacy and engagement with County Assemblies, helping ensure county budgets better respond to the needs of women, youth, persons with disabilities and other marginalised groups.
