My Strategy is

1. We contribute funds (or through a fund raiser!) open a bank account, to help us operate

2. Register Kenya Association of Computer Programmers (KACP), and maybe affiliate to Kenya Computer Society

3. Have memberships, who will of course be vetted by a system like oDesk [odesk.com] that Common Ndwe'x suggested

4. Recruit more members (at a fee, whether through monthly or annual subscription) to the association and 

5. Create awareness in the industry (firms and companies should get coders who have our approval/blessings!!) so that we are recognized and respected

6. Offer trainings, seminars, and the rest

7. More suggestions plz.... :-)))

Thats my 2c's in a nutshell....!!

In this case, Should we then create a list of priorities and how we should approach the whole issue. Should we start as an informal/semi-formal set up and adopt certain priorities and then move up taking more priorities and getting into a formal setting. 

In this case, what issues are we looking at tackling?
