Kenya is taking a major step toward advancing its infrastructure development through international collaboration. The Principal Secretary for the State Department of ICT and Digital Economy, Eng. John Kipchumba Tanui, held a meeting with Ms. Ji Hye Choi, Managing Director of the Korea Overseas Infrastructure Urban Development Corporation KIND Africa Office, to explore partnership opportunities that will support Kenya's next phase of infrastructure growth.
KIND, a government agency of the Republic of Korea, plays a leading role in helping countries develop modern cities and infrastructure through Public-Private Partnerships PPPs. The discussions between the two sides focused on aligning KIND's expertise with Kenya's ambitious plans to launch a National Infrastructure Fund NIF-a new framework designed to mobilize investment for infrastructure projects without over-reliance on borrowing.
Through the NIF, Kenya aims to attract investors and partners to co-develop strategic projects that strengthen the nation's transport, energy, and urban systems. The partnership with KIND is expected to bring valuable technical and financial collaboration to accelerate these efforts.
