Economic prosperity is the state of flourishing, thriving and good fortune in regards to abundance of valuable possessions or money and plentiful supply of a particular desirable thing in one’s life.

The economic impact of the COVID-18 has been very severe. Vulnerable groups, such as the poor, informal sector workers, women, and youth, suffered disproportionately from reduced opportunities and unequal access to social safety nets.

In Africa for instance, the impacts of COVID-19 could push up to over 40 million people into extreme poverty, erasing an estimated five years of progress in fighting poverty.

Africa is a diverse continent offering adequate human and natural resources that have the potential to yield inclusive growth and eradicate poverty in the region, enabling Africans across the continent to live healthier and more prosperous lives.

For economic prosperity in our society, Palscity Foundation seeks to work closely with community members, to empower them through basic economic knowledge. To partner with different organizations and business entities in empowering the society on economic matters

Business and Entrepreneurship
Business is one’s activity of making a living or making money through producing or buying and selling of commodities. Business can also be an organization or enterprising entity engaged in commercial, industrial, or professional activities with the main target of making profit. Entrepreneurship on the other hand, is the ability and readiness to develop, organize and run a business enterprise. Business and Entrepreneurship are very closely related. A business person makes a business out of a pre-existing idea or product, and they usually do it for profit while taking very calculated and managed risks. While, an entrepreneur is usually the inventor of an idea or product. In this program, we seek to mentor more people in the society, especially the young people, to be self-reliant through business innovation. To enable them, create employment for themselves and other leading to a low dependence rates in the society. Our plan is to partner with experienced entrepreneurs and business people to offer basic business and entrepreneurial knowledge and skills to the society. Also to partner with financial institutions who will offer financial literacy programs and if possible financial support to the ready entrepreneurs.

It encompasses all the economic activities that are related to farming. Such activities are: Crop Production and Farming; Chemicals; Breeding Farm Machinery; Distribution; Marketing etc. Food demand is rising each day due to increase in human population. Most people aren’t aware of the food market that is quite huge and how to utilize it to grow economically. Through agriculture, one creates an independent mindset.

Environmental responsibility is the duty that a business or an individual has to perform in a way to keep the environment safe. This include but not limited to:

• waste management;
• conservation of natural resources;
• complying with environmental legislation;
• prevention of pollution

It is the responsibility of each one of us in the society to safeguard our mother nature. Any harm done to the environment, the effects are felt by everyone in the society. For instance, the effects of climate change are being felt everywhere by everyone on earth. It therefore calls for personal environmental responsibility.

In this area, Palscity Foundation seeks to be on the forefront in championing for general Climate Change and Environmental Sustainability programs in the society.

Our key objectives on the environment are:

• To Promote Natural Resources Conservation
• To Secure a Clean and Healthy Environment
• To enable members of the society, have sense of total environmental responsibility

This shall be achieved through two main ways namely:

• Environmental capacity building and empowerment community programs
• Leading and mobilizing in environmental pollution and waste management and afforestation activities

There are four major programs under this:

1. Climate change and Sustainable Development
2. Sustainable Waste Management, Environmental pollution management and control
3. Afforestation and Natural Resource Conservation
4. Environmental Policy Development and Planning and Environmental Advocacy. 

Agriculture and Food Security

Climate Change and Sustainable Development.

Climate Change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns when that change lasts for an extended period of time. It is caused by factors such as biotic processes, variations in solar radiation received by Earth, plate tectonics, and volcanic eruptions. Certain human activities have been identified as primary causes of ongoing climate change, often referred to as global warming. The term “climate change” is often used to refer specifically to anthropogenic climate change also known as global warming. Anthropogenic climate change is caused by human activity, as opposed to changes in climate that may have resulted as part of Earth’s natural processes.
In this sense, especially in the context of environmental policy, the term climate change has become synonymous with anthropogenic global warming. Within scientific journals, global warming refers to surface temperature increases while climate change includes global warming and everything else that increases greenhouse gas levels effect. The main long-term impacts of climate change include: Changing rainfall patterns affecting agriculture and reducing food security; Worsening water security; Decreasing fish resources in large lakes due to rising temperatures; Increasing vector-borne diseases; Rising sea levels affecting low-lying Coastal areas with large populations; and Increasing water stress.
This program works to ensure a clear understanding that Climate Change is a major source of impediment to Sustainable Development and device appropriate ways of response to climate change in Africa and the whole globe. At the same time the program will focus on the dual relationship between sustainable development and climate change. Climate Change influences key natural and human living conditions and therefore forming the basis for sustainable development, while on the other hand, society’s priorities on sustainable development influence both the Green House Gas emissions that are causing climate change and the vulnerability, the program is keen on the need for the exploration of policies that jointly address Sustainable Development and Climate Change

Sustainable Waste Management Environmental Pollution management and control Program

This program works to ensure that each one of us takes responsibility on all waste produced. The program is guided by the principle that waste is not only the responsibility of someone who moves it around or who manages or disposes it. The program reviews and defines various types and levels of waste management and their respective responsibilities. It also works towards managing the environment to prevent and control pollution. Pollution is the contamination of the environment which causes adverse change. Living in areas of high pollution has serious long term health effects. People of all ages who live in high pollution areas for extended periods place themselves at increased risk of various neurological disorders. Pollution control is necessary without which the waste products from consumption, heating, agriculture, mining, manufacturing, transportation and other human activities, whether they accumulate or disperse, will degrade the environment. In the hierarchy of controls, pollution prevention and waste minimization are more desirable than pollution control. The areas under this program are largely categorized as;

• Effluent Waste Management.
• Space Pollution Management & Control
• Electro Pollution Management & Control
• Effect of Radiation Pollution
• Visual Pollution Management & Control
• Soil Pollution Management & Control
• Noise Pollution Management & Control
• Air Pollution Management & Control
• Water Pollution Management & Control

If your actions inspire others to dream big, learn more, do more and become more, then you are a leader.

Palscity Foundation is a platform that believes in every individual being a leader in their own capacity.

Health and Nutrition

Maintaining good health should be the primary focus of every one of us. According to Kenya Vision 2030 goals, Kenya’s health sector is expected to grow at a more accelerated pace than the economy. However, there are areas that need to be addressed in order to achieve the desired goals.

Education

Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.

Peace and Conflict Management

Peace is not absence of conflict; it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means. Palscity Foundation aims at empowering the society to be peace ambassadors and to always promote peaceful co-existence in the society. Most counties have experienced violence especially during elections because youth are misused politically making them to be at the frontline in throwing stones and causing chaos. Palscity Foundation intends to change this narrative.
