📍 Kakuma, Kenya 🇰🇪 Building inclusive communities begins with listening, learning and working together. This week, the Refugee Advisory Committee (RAC), together with @RCKKenya and @DRSKenya, undertook a learning visit to Lodwar, Kakuma, and Kalobeyei in Turkana County, with support from the @denmarkinkenya. The visit brought the delegation into conversation with @TurkanaAssembly , county leadership, ward representatives, humanitarian partners, #refugees and host communities. Through these engagements, RAC members witnessed the urgent needs facing communities, as well as promising initiatives advancing inclusion, essential service delivery and sustainable livelihoods. The learning visit reaffirmed the importance of working alongside government and partners to strengthen inclusive systems, sustain essential services and support opportunities for refugees and host communities to build self-reliance. #KeepingHopealive
