< Back Agri-Jobs 4 Youth Initiative: Land Access for Youth and Women in Western Kenya Location Kisumu, Kakamega, Vihiga, Siaya, and Bungoma. Location Climate Resilience and Peace and Governance In partnership with GFA-GIZ, P4T's Agri-Jobs 4 Youth (AJ4Y) initiative is implementing comprehensive approaches to enhance youth and women's access to land for sustainable economic development in Western Kenya. This multi-pronged program addresses critical barriers preventing young people and women from participating fully in agricultural value chains. Recent Progress Review Workshop On July 24th, a progress review and reflection workshop was held at Victoria Comfort Inn Hotel, Kisumu, to assess implementation outcomes, identify challenges, and draw lessons for upcoming activities and future initiatives. The workshop brought together key stakeholders including: County Climate Action Officers (CCAs) Farmers Service Centers (FSCs) Representatives from GIZ-WE4R AJ4Y team members Partners from Shibuye and Siaya County Youth Network Key Achievements 1. Enhanced Awareness and Knowledge Increased awareness among farmers and landowners about land access mechanisms Improved understanding of different forms of land acquisition processes Better comprehension of legal frameworks governing land rights 2. Strengthened Relationships Increased trust and confidence between farmers and landowners Enhanced certainty of agricultural operations through improved communication Reduced conflicts over land use and access rights 3. Formalization of Land Rights Increased formalization of land lease agreements Improved documentation of land access arrangements Enhanced security of tenure for youth and women farmers 4. Capacity Building and Personal Development Notable personal growth among CCAs and FSCs Improved facilitation skills for conducting community forums Active engagement in agribusiness ventures by project staff Enhanced leadership capabilities in land governance Ongoing Challenges Despite significant progress, deep-rooted cultural norms continue to pose substantial barriers to youth and women's access to land for agricultural production. These traditional practices and beliefs require sustained engagement and community-led approaches to address effectively. Moving Forward The insights gained from this review workshop will inform the remaining phase of the project and contribute to the development of more effective strategies for promoting inclusive agricultural development in Western Kenya.

< Back We4R: Strengthening Gender-Responsive Land Governance: P4T and GIZ–WE4R Conclude Successful BriGLAW County Engagements in Bungoma and Siaya Location Siaya and Bungoma Counties Location Climate Resilience and Peace and Governance Pamoja for Transformation (P4T), in partnership with GIZ–WE4R, implemented a phase of the Bridging the Gap to Land Access among Women (BriGLAW) initiative across Bungoma and Siaya Counties. The coordinated engagements brought together county government officials, Government Land Agencies (GLAs), community leaders, women’s groups, and youth representatives to advance inclusive, equitable, and accountable land governance frameworks. Bungoma County: Policy Orientation & Harmonization Held in Bungoma, the two-day Policy Orientation Workshop focused on reviewing and refining the draft County Land Use Policy and Land Leasing Frameworks . Participants conducted a thorough gap analysis, identifying structural, cultural, and procedural barriers limiting women’s and youth’s access to land. Key outcomes included consensus on: Harmonizing community- and youth-led leasing guidelines. Strengthening monitoring and enforcement mechanisms. Embedding gender-responsive language and affirmative action measures. Promoting women’s meaningful participation in land administration bodies. Gallery from the Bungoma Team, Siaya County: Integration & Institutional Alignment In Siaya, stakeholders convened for a Stakeholder Forum and Policy Development Workshop, aimed at integrating the BriGLAW-informed leasing guidelines into the Siaya Draft Land Management Policy . Discussions addressed institutional capacity gaps, inter-departmental coordination, and alignment with ongoing FAO-led land governance processes. Participants developed concrete action steps to: Fast-track policy finalization and adoption. Strengthening linkages between land, agriculture, gender, and youth departments. Institutionalize community feedback loops in policy implementation. Gallery from Siaya Team, A Unified Vision for Inclusive Land Access Across both counties, a strong, cross-sectoral commitment emerged: land governance must be not only legally sound—but also socially just. The engagements reaffirmed that sustainable development hinges on ensuring women, youth, and marginalized groups can access, use, own, and benefit from land—safely and equitably. This milestone lays the foundation for continued advocacy, policy finalization, and pilot implementation under the BriGLAW initiative, with P4T and partners committed to supporting counties in translating dialogue into durable, transformative change.
