Abstract

Description

The publication identifies James Marwa Mwita as the author and is dated October 2021. It examines citizen participation and the role of citizen-led associations in Kenya's democratic spaces. The study explores how citizens organize themselves and engage in political, social and economic activities, influence self-governance, collaborate with one another, and interact with formal governance processes. Using a combination of desk-based literature review, structured questionnaires and qualitative case studies, the research draws on responses from 421 participants in the Nairobi metropolitan region. It highlights the importance of citizen engagement, civic participation, collective action and accountability in strengthening democracy and promoting inclusive governance in Kenya.
