This is a society that over-rides differences and ensures inclusion, equality of opportunity as well as capability of all members of the society to determine an agreed set of social institutions that govern social interaction. Most of the projects at the county government lack citizens input. The objective of this paper is to analyze the citizen inclusion in various programs at the county government in Kenya, to promote inclusivity and quality of service delivery. The dimension of inclusive societies is a tolerance for an appreciation of cultural diversity in which societies celebrate multiple and diverse expressions of identities.
