Theme: Building Local Democracy
KINNAPA is an abbreviation of the names of the six founding villages of Kimana, Njoro, Ndaleta, Namelock and Partimbo, all located in the Kiteto district. Since 1996, however, the organisation has expanded into the whole of the Kiteto and Simanjiro districts.
The core of MSTZAADK’s support to KINNAPA is based in the area of local governance. It aims to empower community members to participate in local government and demand accountability through civil society organisations (CSOs) in the district. Thus, the partnership’s activities include capacity-building among CSOs, enabling increased accountability and cooperation with local government authorities on service delivery and development projects.
The partnership also aims to contribute to higher-quality primary education in four schools in the Kiteto district, through the creation of four school committees - democratic structures - which empower community members to participate in decisions regarding the management and accountability of their local schools.
