THE DRAFT DIASPORA POLICY OF KENYA - UK DIASPORA COMMENTS (CLICK HERE FOR PDF DOC)

The Kenyan Government released the Draft Diaspora Policy at the beginning of this year. This is a manifestation of the government’s commitment to creating an enabling environment for Diaspora engagement. It is also an opportunity for the Diaspora to determine how they wish to engage with the government in shaping the future social, economic and political agenda of Kenya.
As the High Commission in London, we wish to encourage Kenyans in the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland to critically review the draft policy,  and provide an input before the policy is finalized. It is very significant that the views of the Diaspora are incorporated in the policy in order to create ownership.
We wish to propose that the Diaspora Groups may convene meetings to discuss the draft policy and submit their comments/input in writing to the High Commission for forwarding to Nairobi.....(Click to read more below)

In the 19th century, the Fathers Of The Congregation Of The Holy Spirit introduced coffee into Kenya from Ethiopia.

Coffee is to Kenya as wine is to France. Kenya produces about 2 million bags of Arabica Coffee which are bought and distributed to more than 30 countries around the world. Small holder farmers produce 70% of the coffee crop on small plots. They are members of about 200 cooperative societies which assist them in the processing and marketing of their produce. Large scale farmers produce 30% of the coffee on estates of over one thousand acres. The biggest plantations in Kenya are to be found on the plains off Mount Kenya and to the west of Nairobi.

The coffee is sold through auctions. Kenyas coffee auction has the most transparent distribution system and is considered the best in the world. This auction system inspired and set the standard for the Cup of Excellence auctions which started in Brazil. Other coffee producing nations have followed suit, and today this system is credited with giving farmers with high quality coffee, high prices.
