Smart Move Community

The rise of Vipanga gangs in Kwale demands action, not politics. Organized crime thrives on poverty, unemployment & weak governance. Politicizing it worsens divisions. Let’s unite for long-term resilience—not short-term fixes.

We partnered with @NCRCKenya on a study exploring the link between religion & crime in Kenya using a systems-thinking approach. Funded by GoK, it offers insights for systemic change in crime prevention. Special thanks to Kenneth Bundi Mbaya & Dr. Mutuma Rutere.

Happy Holidays from Smart Move Community! Thank you, Kwale County & our partners, for your support in building inclusive, resilient communities. We reopen on Jan 6th, ready to create more impact together. Here’s to a brighter, peaceful 2024! #CommunityFirst #PeacefulTomorrows
