 This Strategic Plan articulates the strategic vision and mandate of the fighting against Aids stigma in KenyaUntil the year 2012. It articulates the shared Vision, Mission and core functions; policy priorities, strategic objectives, and resource requirements that will be required between 2007 and 2012. In developing this Strategic Plan, we have recognized the NGO’S strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. Similarly the NGO has been able to fully appreciate some of the underlying challenges facing the people living with HIV/AIDS Whilst many challenges face PLWHIV, undoubtedly the most acute is the inability to access employment – the lack of opportunities to earn a decent and honest living. It is this that drives young people into crime and drugs, and into a general state of hopelessness and despair. The issue of creating employment opportunities for the OVCS (formal, informal and self employment) needs therefore to be addressed urgently and with the kind of resources, focus and commitment as has been directed at HIV/AIDS. There is need for a “Marshal” plan as was used to re-settle widows landless people after being grabbed their land. In fact, an investment in building the capacity of PLWHIV by targeted interventions and in addressing their specific needs in terms of education, skills training and gainful employment is seen as imperative for national development and the realization of the Millennium Development Goals in Kenya by 2015,vision 2030 as well as NACC vision. This Strategic Plan offers a coherent, ambitious but realizable road map to address this and other challenges facing PLWHIV Finally, it is our anticipation that just as the organization engaged key stakeholders in the preparatory process of this Strategic Plan, it will continue to solicit the full engagement of all relevant stakeholders as we move on to actualizes the strategies and activities outlined in this document. Indeed, our collective undertaking as FAASIK is to re-dedicate ourselves to the important task of successfully implementing this Strategic Plan. Towards this end, the Implementation Matrix becomes a critical component of the Plan, and all identified activities will be translated into the day-to-day assignments of the organization and its departments. The organization will continuously review its operational processes to facilitate the smooth implementation of this Strategic Plan. We are confident that implementing this plan will address in a holistic manner the entire spectrum of plwhiv and ovcs development. Madam Victoria Oyungu Director of health and welfare |
