By Madaraka Katana Balancing planning and implementation is one of the most significant challenges faced by leaders in community-driven projects. I’ve come to understand this deeply through my personal journey, serving in dual roles as Operations Manager at RegisTree, a community-based waste management and composting enterprise, and Chairperson of Dabaso Youth for Green Future, a youth-led organization focused on environmental action and empowering sustainable livelihoods. From the outside, planning and implementation may look like two natural stages of a project. One lays the foundation, and the other builds on it.

  Image by freepik Many incidents have been happening in Kenya that are driven by extreme ideas and views, that are different from what people generally believe. Some of these incidents have been either political, religious or ideological, influencing people to support extremism. A few examples include: The 1998 US embassy attack in Nairobi. The 2007 post election violence where different ideologies were spread leading to tribal clashes. The Shakahola massacre in 2013 where people were convinced to fast till death in order to meet Jesus in heaven.

It was an occasion that drew the entire community together, their footsteps hushed as they approached the ancient woodland that bordered their homes The townsfolk, adorned in sombre attire, gathered beneath the expansive canopy of trees that had towered over Kitsangatunde for centuries. Their trunks stood like silent sentinels, witnesses to the passing of time and generations. A collective sadness hung in the air as if the very essence of the forest mourned with them. At the forefront of the gathering was an elderly figure, the town's wise matriarch, known as Hekima. Her silver hair cascaded like a waterfall down her back, and her eyes held the wisdom of years spent in communion with nature.
