Next month, Kenya will celebrate 14 years since the promulgation of its 2010 Constitution, a landmark event that followed years of struggle and advocacy for a more equitable system of governance.

This Constitution redefined the relationship between the governed and those who govern, most notably through the introduction of devolution. For the first time, power and resources were transferred to 47 devolved units, ending a central government system that had long favoured some regions over others.
