\r\n Kenyatta University - EACCIA Partnership<\/span>\r\n <\/dt>\r\n
\r\n

\r\n In order to successfully deliver the PPP Training Programme, the EACCIA has now partnered with Kenyatta University, in Nairobi, Kenya, through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding and we are jointly collaborating in establishing a PPP Training Programme, based at the University to run this course, in Kenya, which is also targeted to reach across the entire East African Community (EAC) member states, and other countries in the region with whom we partner, such as South Sudan, Somaliland and the Democratic Republic of Congo. <\/p>\r\n <\/dd>\r\n

\r\n EACCIA \u2013 East African Development Bank (EADB) Partnership<\/span>\r\n <\/dt>\r\n
\r\n

\r\n We are partnering with The East African Development Bank (EADB), one of the institutions of the East African Community (EAC) member states and which is the focal point for coordinating the PPP agenda in the region to implement a PPP training course which is tailor-made for devolved forms of government and other key stakeholders wishing to understand the PPP concept. County and regional Governments can greatly benefit by participating in this course. <\/br>The objective of the five-day training course is to empower Government officials to enable them to identify alternative sources of funding for a number of County projects outside the normal National Treasury allocations. PPP would be a powerful development tool which can be used to boost county government collaborative productivity with local stakeholders. <\/br>Previous phases in PPP interventions show how the application of the right PPP Project mechanisms, through training for the staff, can increase returns on development efforts. In the Training Programme on PPPs for County Governments, County officials will learn and get to practice an easy and efficient approach to implementing their local projects. They shall\nuse what they learn in this course to implement their projects faster, with more consistent results. This will in turn impact the bottom line. <\/p>\r\n <\/dd>\r\n

\r\n

\r\n In an effort to strengthen its trade facilitation role and support its chamber members in the region, EACCIA has recently signed a series of MOUs with a number of international chambers of commerce.\n\nThis is expected to increase trade and investment opportunities between East Africa and the countries with whom we have established collaborative relationships through their chambers. We have signed MOUs with the two chambers in Jordan (Jordan Chamber of Commerce (JCC) and Jordan Chamber of Industry (JCI)), the Union of Arab Chambers (UAC) which brings together 21 chambers from the various Arab countries, the Kolkata based Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC) and the National Black Chamber of Commerce in Washington, DC.
