My political agenda

LEADERSHIP AGENDA

Her election agenda focuses on breaking political entry barriers for young technocrats and policy experts, expanding technological and vocational funding, and directly linking Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) graduates with digital commerce, outsourcing opportunities and technical funding pools to reduce youth unemployment. She also champions mentoring frameworks that secure leadership positions for young women in the tech and data science sectors, and the creation of sub-county digital innovation hubs and local funding ecosystems for early-stage micro-enterprises. She calls for civil, policy-driven debate that offers tangible solutions to everyday problems.
