The Kenyan government may find more progress in combatting the influence of al-Shabaab and its sympathizers by building bridges between communities rather than scapegoating, offering under-served communities more resources to serve youth and families, and undertaking serious reform and accountability for security forces’ actions on civilians. 
Serikali ya Kenya inaweza kupata mafanikio katika kupambana na ushawishi wa Al-Shabaab na wanaowaunga mkono kwa kujenga daraja kati ya jamii na sio kutafuta mchawi, kutoa misaada kwa jamii zisizopata msaada ili kuwatumikia vijana na familia, na kuchukua hatua mpya makini na uwajibikaji kwa vitendo vinavyofanywa na vikosi vya kijeshi kwa raia wa kawaida.
