Community Readiness and Technology Adoption Assessment for Post-Harvest Fisheries Interventions in Homa Bay County, Kenya

This report presents the findings of a comprehensive community readiness and technology adoption assessment carried out between 13 and 15 October 2025 across Kakione, Sindo, and Nyachebe Beaches in Homa Bay County, Kenya. The findings reveal that community-level social capital is already in place—anchored in trust, collective responsibility, and established welfare systems. However, technical competence, equipment functionality, and market integration are weak points requiring targeted support.
