LOGRI
The Local Government Revenue Initiative (LoGRI) is an initiative of the International Centre for Tax and Development (ICTD) based at the Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy at the University of Toronto, Canada.
In June they hosted over 150 government administrators, policymakers, applied researchers, and experts in Nairobi to discuss equitable and progressive property tax systems in lower-income countries.
The conference commenced with an opening address by H.E. Dr. Musalia Mudavadi, the Prime Cabinet Secretary of the Republic of Kenya. Dr. Mudavadi emphasized the significance of local revenue generation for Kenyan county governments in expanding and improving public service delivery, developing financial autonomy, and overcoming constraints in external funding. These themes of government accountability, equity, and progressive reform underscored the conference.
