Kenya keeps linking up with Azerbaijan for help on housing projects and digital government stuff after Prime CS Musalia Mudavadi met with Ambassador Sultan Hajiyev. The partnership targets urban development ahead of the World Urban Forum that Baku hosts next year, and Kenya wants to copy the Asan Service model to upgrade Huduma Centres while chasing funding for affordable housing schemes under Ruto.
Azerbaijan has been running its own affordable housing roadmap since 2016, and the country opened an embassy in Nairobi earlier this year. Kenya sees Baku as a gateway into Eurasian urban development networks where governments show off rapid modernization.
Both sides talked about tourism, energy diversification, and green tech investments since Azerbaijan has oil and gas money that Kenya wants to tap for economic growth.
