Both directly and indirectly, the construction industry is a key source of employment for Kenya’s youths and women. In order to nurture this growth, industry research is the way to go. To foster research in Kenya’s construction industry, the National Construction Authority formulated the National Construction Research Agenda- a document that was published in June 2014. To provide a forum for participatory approach in generating innovative solutions to the issues dogging the construction industry, the authority formulated the Annual Construction Research Conference and Exhibition. NCA has at present held two Annual Construction Research Conference and Exhibition events in the last two years.
