Having development projects in Kenya in place is a way of strengthening the economy in many different small ways. These projects are different; some aim at helping specific segments of the community, other to improve safety, enhance social and cultural aspects and generally improving the living standards of the people in the society. Most of these projects are also aimed at creating a sustainable living standard for everyone in the society. Once sustainable living is achieved, then it is a stepping stone to economic growth and sustainability.

Every project that is planned and executed usually has a goal pegged to it and development projects in Kenya are the same. The following are some of the goals of development projects established in Kenya every now and then, depending on the type of project it is:

One of the goals of development projects in Kenya especially at the community level is to provide basic amenities to members of the society. These projects are usually executed in rural areas that have little access to such amenities. These include hospitals, water sources, energy, schools, and other amenities that may be found lacking. www.hmds.or.ke
Another goal of development projects in Kenya is to eradicate poverty in communities. This is where the project managers and the other stakeholders in the project will find out ways of eradicating poverty in given areas then execute it. For instance in dry areas, they could introduce irrigation and green house farming so that crops can still be grown despite the harsh weather conditions. The community can be educated on how to go about it. They can grow crops for food, and sell the excess. www.hmds.or.ke
Most of the roads in Kenya are either impassable or do not exist at all. Another goal of development projects is to ensure that Kenyan road are accessible and are maintained to stay in good condition for a long time. Some roads are also expanded to ease congestion and hence save a lot of time while on the road.

The height of ignorance is increasing especially in rural areas where there is little exposure. Some of the development projects in Kenya are usually geared towards empowering the communities on the issues that affect them, and they can avoid it only that they have no idea they could. These empowerment projects include enlightening women on the benefits of family planning, delivering in health facilities and attending pre-natal and post-natal clinics. They are also geared towards teaching young people the dangers of having unprotected sex, and abortions. www.hmds.or.ke
