The Democracy Trust Fund (DTF) was honoured yesterday to host its Patron, Dr Jennifer Riria, alongside the Chief of Party for Echo Network Africa Foundation (ENAF), Mrs Sarah Muhoya. The visit provided a vital opportunity for a high-level review of the year’s progress and a strategic look ahead at the ambitious plans set for 2026. Met by the DTF staff under the leadership of Executive Director Ms Juliana Kiio, the discussions underscored a shared determination to build upon the successes of the past year and expand the reach of the organisation’s transformative work.
Both Dr Riria and Mrs Muhoya reaffirmed their unwavering commitment to the growth of DTF, pledging to invest their time, resources, and extensive networks to upscale the organisation’s programmes in the coming year. This support is set to be a cornerstone of DTF’s strategy as it seeks to broaden its influence and deepen its impact within the governance sector. The assurance of such dedicated mentorship and backing from ENAF leadership provides the team with a solid foundation to pursue even more significant milestones in the subsequent year.
As the meeting concluded, Dr Riria extended her heartfelt “Happy Holidays” to the entire team, expressing her confidence in their continued success. She specifically highlighted the noble quest of supporting and empowering women to take up leadership positions at all levels across the country. This final word of encouragement served as a powerful reminder of DTF’s core mission: to ensure that the political and leadership landscape remains inclusive, equitable, and representative of all voices.
