The TTGD EcoSociety Kenya Siaya initiative has mobilized 100 local land-owning farmers to engage in sustainable sunflower cultivation and beekeeping across 100 acres. Three multi-stakeholder committee meetings have been held to coordinate efforts among farmers, local administration, elders, and agricultural officers. An agronomist has been appointed, and sunflower seeds valued at KES 100,000 have been secured to support the first planting cycle.
Situated in Siaya County, Kenya — a region with nearly one million residents and a high female population ratio — the project addresses food security and poverty-related challenges. Local gender-based vulnerabilities are linked to poor access to clean water, healthcare, and reliable nutrition. By leveraging the region’s favorable climate and agricultural potential, the project aims to empower rural households, increase edible oil production, and improve economic and nutritional outcomes through sustainable, high-value agriculture.
This proposal sets out a structured plan to deploy the Project Health Control (PHC) Service as the core governance and monitoring mechanism for the TTGD Funding Ready Kenya, Siaya. The PHC Service is a flexible, phased methodology designed to enhance project performance through real-time oversight, risk management, and stakeholder coordination.
The Kenya Siaya Funding Ready is part of a growing grassroots movement to create locally driven, self-sustaining communities that address food security, economic resilience, and environmental stewardship.
A preliminary PHC Gap Analysis has been conducted covering five domains — Products & Services, Premises & Equipment, People, Finance, and Marketing. The analysis identifies existing capacity, desired future capability, and the actions required to close the gaps. Highlights include the need for upgraded equipment and digital infrastructure (Starter Pack sets), targeted financial planning to support community micro-enterprise, and training programmes to build local PHC competence.
The complete analysis can be viewed under the link titled Project Gap Analysis in the Appendix section.
