The last meeting, held a month ago, we worked on AAK's #StrategicPlan 2025-2030, having had a good grip on matters that need focus and established #AAKEnterprises. This will now be progressively developed in the next session with engagement of our members and stakeholders.
Today was my last full day serving as President of @arch_ke. I have had the pleasure of working with a collaborative Governing Council, chairing the monthly meetings for the 2-year session where we collectively achieved a lot for our members, Chapters, and the Built Environment.
We also looked at joint training and enhancement of our regulatory framework towards self-regulation.
The meeting signified the start of a collaboration leveraging technical capabilities to enhance best practices as guided by law in Kenya's construction industry.

We discussed the need for improved legal awareness and compliance within the built environment, strengthened advocacy for legal reforms for sustainable urban development given the need for legal redress on planning, zoning and compliance currently facing our urban areas.
