Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen on Monday held talks with the Danish Ambassador to Kenya, Stephan Schönemann, focusing on refugee reforms under the Shirika Plan.
The meeting aimed to fast-track the implementation of the Shirika Plan—a landmark initiative seeking to shift refugee management from a traditional humanitarian model to a long-term development approach.
Murkomen lauded Denmark’s continued support, noting its significance amid global cuts in humanitarian aid.
He emphasized the importance of international partnerships in ensuring Kenya’s refugee policies promote self-reliance and dignity for displaced populations.
The Danish government has been a key ally in supporting Kenya’s humanitarian and development efforts, particularly in refugee-hosting regions.
