The State Department for Diaspora Affairs has launched a three-day Diaspora Job Fair in Kericho County, running from August 6-8, 2026, to connect Kenyan youth with safe overseas employment.

• The initiative aims to promote safe, regular, and orderly labour mobility through the government's Kazi Majuu program.
• Amb. Hellen Gichuhi, Secretary for Diaspora Welfare and Partnerships, warned job seekers against unaccredited agencies and urged verification via the National Employment Authority (NEA) portal.
• The forum provides guidance on ethical recruitment, pre-departure requirements, and workers' rights abroad, fostering contributions to national development.
