Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Adoption Initiative

Project Lead

  • Led a team of 3 to drive the adoption of GIS technology across Kenyan county governments to improve decision-making process, resource allocation and regional development by 95%.
  • Organized and facilitated consultation meetings in 4 counties (Kiambu,
    Kakamega, Mombasa and Nyeri) by engaging senior stakeholders from ICT, Finance and Planning departments within these counties to secure buy-in and drive the project’s goal.
  • Participated in the designing and development of a GIS prototype tailored for Nyeri county, presenting its strategic benefits in planning and resource management to the governor and officials from ICT and Planning departments.
  • Streamlined the project operations by coordinating schedules, maintaining regular communication with county offices and tracking the project’s progress across key stakeholders.
  • Fostered strategic partnerships with individuals from cross-cutting industries such as Politics, Geospatial engineering, Programmers and Administrators. I learnt to align the project objectives with the government priorities, communicate with stakeholders from diverse industries and build the team spirit all through the project’s lifecycle.
