Essentially, this is paying people to take care of themselves, benefit themselves, and benefit society. A form of "trickle-up economics", if you will. This adds to the value they receive back from society for improving themselves and their situation. It's reminiscent of EIC in the USA. This may be the best distribution method for this sort of funding. Now the only question is the same as UBI - who funds it? Why is this tested in Kenya instead of Detroit or Wyoming? Is it because the daily income of a Kenyan is a rounding-error to an American? That won't scale.
