East Africa

Eighty percent of the population relies on agriculture for income, and smallholder farmers face low productivity and income instability. We focus on helping smallholder farmers increase yields and incomes with climate-resilient practices and access to markets.

With free and affordable public education, millions more children are enrolled in primary schools but the increase in access has caused education quality to suffer. We are dedicated to improving access to quality education for low-income learners across East Africa.

About half of the population lacks access to electricity, which inhibits the region from reaching its economic potential. We’re committed to ending energy poverty by providing access to unelectrified households, decarbonizing rural livelihoods, and building clean energy infrastructure.
