VILLAGE VOCATIONS PROGRAM
OUR FEATURED TRAININGS
We work with communities and in partnership with other organizations in improving the livelihoods of Kenyans through Community Empowerment
Agri-Entrepreneurship
We advocate for farming practices that increase farmers’ resilience to climate change. We support socially responsible and economically viable Agri-entrepreneurship initiatives by youth and women groups and facilitate agricultural innovation as well as Value Addition while at the same time ensuring that these methods of production do not interfere with the environment. Our main aim is to empower farmer’s groups to be able to meet their basic needs.
Gender & Women Empowerment
We promote innovation, increased economic inclusion and create jobs through entrepreneurship and agro-entrepreneurship in rural areas. Through these schemes, community members come together to form associations which are later trained on entrepreneurship with the aim of creating employment opportunities in rural areas through small enterprisesThese schemes mainly succeed through skill up-grading, handholding and credit support to rural women.
Sustainable Indingenous Seed System
Our community seed banks offer a sustainable way to improve access to high-value seeds, creating viable community-based businesses and maintaining biodiversity by strengthening their ability to grow food sustainably, using locally adapted seeds. In addition, community seed banks contribute to farmer adaptation. They also indirectly enhance household income diversification, community seed systems, and conserve indigenous and non-GMO seeds.
