Mission statement:
The mission is that the community should be educated on their human rights their capacities and especially empowering women both financially and technically to secure their rights  There should be enhanced efforts put in place to eradicate illiteracy within the community. There should more interactions between the Luos community members and members from other community so that they can appreciate the cultural values of other communities. This can be achieved through exchange visits to with other communities and through use of media, drama and discussions. This would go a long way in demystifying the negative notions held by the other communities about the Luos.  Advocate for implementation of affirmative action so that women and other marginalized groups can participate meaningfully in community development.  Encourage girl child education so that the level of illiteracy among women can be reduced, and this will allow women to self reliant and hence significantly contribute to community development.
