Development approvals are usually expected to take approximately 60 days but can sometimes stretch to more than 6 months. This often translates to increase in project costs and delays in project completion.

To help drive reform, KPDA is piloting the Development Approval Tracking & Support (DATS) System. By capturing the approval delays, the data will help support evidence-based advocacy for faster, more efficient approval processes.

Experiencing a delay? Tell us about the approval, waiting period, and challenges encountered.

Unlocking green finance for developers in Kenya.
On 28th May 2026, KPDA, in partnership with GBPN and the State Department for Public Works, hosted a Developers’ Engagement Workshop under the Kenya Buildings Decarbonization Financing Accelerator Programme. The workshop brought together developers, financiers, technical experts, DFIs, and ecosystem partners to explore how to unlock capital for green and sustainable developments

June 1, A new month. A new half of the year. A moment to reflect.

As we mark Madaraka Day and begin the second half of the year, perhaps the question isn't how far we've come.

Perhaps it's whether we're building the Kenya we keep talking about.

Happy Madaraka Day.
