EVEN-P was established as a CBO in April, 2010 and later registered as NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATON (NGO) under the NGO act of 1995 in March, 2011.
It is a non-profit, charitable, relief and development agency to address poverty in the Northern Region of Kenya, with special references to the Nomadic people by implementing long term community based programmes, self reliance and useful development.
EVEN-P has instituted its centre of operations (H/Q) in Mandera town which is Mandera county headquarters. The county has an extensive and volatile border with Somalia. The organization is planning to make its major development areas in Mandera County and the neighbouring communities with a population of over 1 million people according to 2009 population census. The creation of the organization was the brainchild of reputable professional, elders and women leaders from Mandera and Wajir Counties.
CORE VALUES:
3. OVERALL GOAL
To reduce vulnerability of the Pastoralists communities’ livelihoods to poverty, conflict, insecurity, illiteracy and enhance their participation in development.
Mandera County is an underserviced part of Kenya occupied mostly by Nomadic Somalian people. As they settle, they require development of an infrastructure. We are working with the local community elders to determine the needs of the people. We require expertise in infrastructal development, agriculture, education and managment.
