Community-centered environmental solutions for sustainable development in Laikipia County's arid and semi-arid landscapes.
Five integrated programs working together to create comprehensive climate solutions that address mitigation, adaptation, and sustainable development.
Harnessing rainwater for resilient communities
Our water conservation program focuses on roof catchment systems and water harvesting techniques specifically designed for Laikipia's arid and semi-arid climate. We work with local communities to install and maintain sustainable water storage solutions.
Reduced water collection time from 4 hours to 30 minutes daily
Ensured consistent water supply for educational activities
Drought-resistant crops for food security
We promote drought-resistant crop varieties and climate-smart farming techniques adapted to arid and semi-arid conditions. Our programs help farmers build resilience against climate variability while improving food security.
Improved food security during extended dry seasons
Preserved local crop varieties and reduced dependency on external inputs
Clean energy for sustainable communities
We install biogas and solar energy systems in rural communities across Laikipia. Our focus is on providing sustainable energy alternatives that reduce dependence on traditional fuels while improving quality of life.
Provided clean cooking fuel and reduced indoor air pollution
Enabled evening study programs and improved educational outcomes
Sustainable pastoralism for arid lands
Our livestock programs focus on destocking strategies and improved animal husbandry practices suited to arid and semi-arid conditions. We help pastoralists adapt to climate variability while maintaining their traditional livelihoods.
Reduced overgrazing and improved rangeland recovery
Enhanced animal health and productivity in drought conditions
Our programs don't work in isolation. By combining sustainable agriculture with renewable energy, water conservation with biodiversity protection, and education with all our initiatives, we create synergistic effects that multiply our climate impact.
Creating closed-loop systems where waste from one program becomes input for another.
Addressing environmental challenges as interconnected systems requiring holistic solutions.
Every program includes rigorous monitoring and evaluation to ensure maximum impact.
