The South-Eastern Kenya Investment Coordination Mechanism (SEK)

The South-Eastern Kenya (SEK) Investments Coordination Mechanism unites the USAID Implementing partners from across three counties, including-; Makueni, Kitui and Taita Taveta. The network, launched on October 3rd 2019, is convened and chaired by USAID- Feed the Future and Food for Peace Programmes.

The membership to the mechanism is USAID and USAID IPs due to the following reasons;

  1. The Mechanism will allow USAID to coordinate and increase efficiency among its implementing partners, reduce duplication, promote transparency and mutual accountability between USAID/IPS and the three county governments.
  2. It will allow USAID and the IPs to be consistent and coherent in the programming approach to resilience since different development partners define and employ different approaches in their programs.
  3. The mechanism will improve accountability and coordination across USAID technical offices as well as mutual accountability among its partners.
