US backs Kenya’s road to progress and self-reliance

This is a pivotal time in Kenya’s history. The handshake last year that paved the way for a stronger democracy rooted in peaceful dialogue and post-election political stability has allowed Kenya’s economy to continue growing. By all accounts, Kenya is poised to be Africa’s shining star. Opportunities for advancements in health, education, justice and prosperity are set clearly before us. The United States stands ready to help ensure those opportunities become realities for Kenyans. 

Our new strategic partnership with Kenya holds the promise of great prosperity for both of our countries and we want our investments – public and private – to provide maximum benefits possible. Our governments have built a relationship rooted in common values. The door is open for private sector-led growth to be the engine that will transform Kenya.
