<\/p>\nThe Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) has finally been launched with the hope it will herald a new Kenya that is free of divisive political hostilities.<\/p>\n
The report, a product of a 14 member task-force, was launched before over 5000 delegates at the Bomas of Kenya, Nairobi. The youths have not been left out in the report also and have every reason to be excited.<\/p>\n
Through several recommendations made, the Kenyan youth have equal and ample opportunities to prosper for the next 3 generations or 100 years.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The country has been divided for some time now but with the help of BBI, Kenyans will become one. Kenya\u2019s darkest day was in 2007-2008 when more than 1,000 people were killed in post-election violence while some 600,000 others were displaced in the disputed presidential election between Mwai Kibaki and Raila Odinga in what culminated to a power-sharing deal.<\/a><\/p>\n BBI will recommend introducing ethics as a compulsory subject in school from nursery to university as a way to improve unity and cohesion in the country. Another suggestion in the 156-page report is to introduce parenting classes “for all new parents so that they know how to properly instruct, correct, rebuke, and support their children”.<\/p>\n Many Kenyans have been complaining about tough financial times something that the BBI has looked into. In the 156-page document, lack of national ethos is captured as one of the challenges that has pushed back national development, something the two leaders agreed must be addressed.<\/p>\n Other than the economic impact and Cultural ethos, BBI will also ensure Integrity will be part of the Ethos set to improve the country.<\/p>\n
