The Frontier Counties Development Council (FCDC) is a regional economic bloc composed of the County Governments of Lamu, Tana River, Garissa, Wajir, Mandera, Marsabit, Isiolo, Turkana, Samburu and West Pokot in the aftermath of devolution.
Registered formally in March 2016, the Council promotes cooperation, coordination and information sharing between Counties in view of strengthening devolution, enhancing socioeconomic development and promoting peaceful coexistence among its members.
FCDC is mandated to facilitate the review and the integration of relevant policies, particularly those that affect directly on frontier counties to ensure there is a better collaboration among concerned agencies and authorities beyond frontier counties’ boundaries and jurisdictions.
The Council has a Secretariat and offices based in Nairobi, with technical and management staff, drawn largely from the FCDC region.
