Today, political leaders and other prominent people attend harambee functions and donate large sums of money. |
|
The harambee movement has since been politicized, weakening the partnership between the state and local communities. |
|
I feel especially privileged to be in Kenya today, home of harambee, a practical and longstanding tradition of community voluntary action. |
|
One means is via the harambee, a Kenyan custom whereby people gather to donate money to community projects. |
|
It is interesting to observe an evolution of government policy towards community harambee schools in Kenya. |
|
Because the government could not provide enough government-funded schools, community-built harambee secondary schools were developed. |
|
Moi gradually turned harambee efforts into overt political events. |
|
In the traditional cooperative movement, in the harambee groups, the driving factor was very much social, the need to have enough food, the need to have a cohesive community. |
|
May it be in the best spirit of harambee that parliamentarians pull together to strengthen CSR for the benefit of the people and communities they represent. |
|
In the early post-independence period faithbased organizations, eager to quench the thirst for education and put their imprint on the harambee movement, encouraged local communities to continue to raise funds for schools. |
