Lobbying and advocacy


Caritas empowers the communities to enable them re-negotiate power in order to gain more control, to advocate for human rights and demand for services. Areas of advocacy include participation in National budget for increased funding to Agriculture and fighting counterfeit agro-inputs in the market. As a result, Village Budget Advocacy groups (VBDGs) have been formed in Nyamweru sub-county to follow up the disbursements from central governments in order to ensure delivery of the resources to intended beneficiaries especially the NAADS money.
