Developing Kenya's Emerging

SUED's Strategic Approach

SUED is geared towards supporting market-driven growth in its 12 supported municipalities to aid them to become economically viable centers of sustainable urban development.

 

We are working with 10 supported municipalities to help them attract investment for critical climate-resilient infrastructure and value chain projects.  We are doing this through partnering with both the public and private sector to improve urban economic planning, business environment reforms and developing bankable urban investments. 

 

SUED is hopeful that in doing so supported municipalities will have an enabling environment for economic growth that is inclusive and sustainable.

SUED's Funding 

SUED is funded by the UK Government. The programme's funding is channeled through two mechanisms:

Seed Fund: Part of the programme fund is being utilised to support infrastructural development and value chain projects. The seed fund is demand led and based on the projects identified in the respective municipal urban economic plans

Technical Assistance: Each municipality receives technical support across the programme's implementation period. The technical supports cuts across urban economic planning, investment attraction, regulatory reform and institutional strengthening.
