Tear Fund Country Director Gladys Wathanga has lauded the National Council of Churches of Kenya for her positive impact on communities. Wathanga pointed out that the Council had achieved so much within 2 years, through her innovative Community and Church Mobilization Programme (CCMP). She was speaking during a one week learning forum on CCMP for Tear Fund Partners in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. “I call upon others partners to emulate NCCK on how to influence Christian/Muslim relations and enhance quality scale up of the programme”, said Wathanga. The forum brought together a total of 40 participants during which NCCK shared her story on how to implement CCMP in urban and Christian/Muslim context in Coast region. NCCK’s Senior Programmes Officer for Capacity Building for Membership Grace Muthungu said that the forum was quite helpful. “We now see the need to have a national coordinating forum for CCMP practitioners in Kenya to enhance leaning and continuous improvement of the process,” she said.
