Mwakwere opens the special Fleet Forum at the Humanitarian Development Summit

Humanitarian Development Summit17-19 October 2007 Kenyatta International Conference Centre (KICC)Nairobi, Kenya



The Fleet Forum hosted a special conference morning on Day 2 of the summit, with sessions devoted to private sector collaboration, safely, clean fleets and issues of vehicle leasing and fleet financing. This special session was opened by the Kenyan Minister of Transport Chirau Ali Mwakwere, who addressed many concerns regarding transport within the region.
One of the key strengths of the Humanitarian Development Program is the forming of close relationships with leading organisations through an Official Steering Committee, established to extend the reach of the established network and ensure the highest possible level of representation from all relevant areas.

This year's Humanitarian Development Summit managed to build further on the great success of last year's event, reiterating the HDPs' commitment to the region and engaging the aid and development community and the international private sector to discuss best practice and the achievement of progress across all sectors.
The HDP will be holding the next HDP Nairobi Summit in Autumn 2008, with plans also afoot to use the successful summit model for a series of other interrelated events from early 2008.
