IGI Kenya

IGI Kenya (IGI-K) has a large membership among young Christian professionals and across several of the big estates in Nairobi. IGI-K pioneered the Community Taxpayers’ Assemblies, enabling it to be very active in civic education, election monitoring and holding elected officials to account.  The network of CTAs has grown to two dozen across Kenya.

Due to IGI-K experience in monitoring infrastructure and other projects, it is also well placed to work with development agencies to guard against fraud and corruption in the delivery of their services.

Current Projects

There are now 24 registered Community Taxpayers’ Assemblies.

IGI-K was active in the monitoring of the 2022 election, before, during and after the voting.  A major initiative driven by the CTAs was the holding of local public hustings for candidates in the months before the vote.  These forums have now been transformed into a means holding the candidates to account for doing what they promised, as well as challenging local authorities over apparent examples of corruption.
