Grant Description

The Kenya Transition Initiative (KTI) was launched in May 2008 following the signing of the National Accord on Dialogue and Reconciliation to support national and local-level stabilization and transition efforts to support recovery and reduce political, social volatility and vulnerability to violence.

KTIs overall CVE programming objective is to create stronger identity and self-confidence of youth to allow them to reject extremism, and is a pilot program for USAID in that it focuses on pull factors to extremism instead of the push factors that development programs have traditionally addressed.
