🇰🇪🤝 Strengthening the Kenya–Scotland connection!

We were delighted to welcome the Kenyan High Commissioner to the UK, H.E. Amb. Maurice Makoloo to Scotland for a series of engagements with members of the Kenyan community, academia, and partner organisations.

It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate our shared heritage, strengthen relationships, and explore new opportunities for collaboration in education, research, business, and community development.

A sincere thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to making the visit such a success. Together, we continue to build a vibrant and connected Kenyan Community in Scotland.
