Citizen Journalism Reporting (CJR) is an invitation for you to be part of ALIN BLOG's coverage of the stories you care about and an opportunity to be a part of a global community of men and women who are as passionate about development news as you are.

At ALIN we believe that looking at the news from different angles gives us a deeper understanding of what's going on. We also know that the world is an amazing place filled with interesting people doing fascinating things that don't always make the news. 

That's why CJR is full of tools to help you tell your stories using various approaches and discuss the issues that are important in Kajiado County. 

Together, ALIN can paint a more complete picture of the news and events happening in Kajiado County. We'd love for you to join us. Jump on in, tell your story and see how it connects with someone on the other side of the world.
