KENYA

Who We Are

Green World Campaign Kenya is a non-governmental organization dedicated to environmental regeneration and community empowerment. Established in 2010 and officially registered under the Societies Act of Kenya in 2011, we have been co-designing solutions with indigenous coastal communities to restore degraded landscapes, combat climate change, and improve livelihoods.

We operate in Mombasa, Kilifi, and Kwale counties, working closely with schools, youth groups, smallholder farmers, women’s groups, and faith-based organizations to create long-term sustainable impact.

Our Goals

  1. Regenerate degraded landscapes using nature-based solutions.

  2. Combat climate change through sustainable land management.

  3. Improve livelihoods by empowering communities with financial literacy and sustainable practices.

Using a systems approach and systems thinking, our initiatives focus on:

  • Agroforestry – Training farmers to adopt biodiverse farming, shifting away from monoculture while integrating climate-smart agriculture for better resilience.

  • Woodlands (Kaya Forests) – Partnering with Kaya elders to educate younger generations on traditional forest conservation methods that have preserved these sacred forests for centuries.

  • Mangrove Restoration – Collaborating with local groups to restore mangrove ecosystems along the Indian Ocean, strengthening biodiversity and coastal resilience.

Through these efforts, Green World Campaign Kenya continues to work towards a greener, more sustainable future for coastal communities.

Our Initiatives

Is a school based environmental education program that fosters positive and proactive attitudes towards environmental conservation. It uses environmental clubs as a spring board to promote environmental education in the community. Not only do many schools have good access to land and water in Kenya, they are an ideal channel to educate the next generation of Kenyans to care about the environment.

We’ve created 94 school programs across coastal Kenya that have provided eco-education to 200,000 students, with emphasis on global citizenship, conflict resolution, and empowering women and girls. Children plant seedbed nurseries and care for a variety of trees (up to 2000 trees per school, many for fruit and nutrition). They teach their parents about multipurpose species. Schools are used for farmer education and as demonstration sites for regeneration.

Biodiverse species, many of them providing nutrition for children, are planted in areas surrounding schools and through farmers groups. Each student is assigned trees to care for until they graduate and they work with families and farmers in areas around the schools.

Food security and AgrofoRestry

At Green World Campaign Kenya, our holistic approach to community well-being goes hand in hand with regenerative environmental restoration. Through agroforestry, we ensure food security while restoring ecosystems, building the capacities of communities with sustainable farming techniques. Our Schools as Action Learning Centers equips communities with agroforestry skills, fostering resilience against climate change. To date, we have planted over 4 million biodiverse trees, including moringa and neem, with a 75% survival rate, improving soil health and biodiversity. We integrate climate-resistant indigenous vegetables such as Sukuma wiki, okra, spinach, spider plant, and nightshade, ensuring year-round nutrition and sustainable livelihoods. Through this initiative, we create thriving, self-sufficient communities while combating climate change.

Moringa, often called the “miracle tree,” is a powerhouse of nutrition, medicinal value, and environmental benefits, making it an ideal choice for the arid and semi-arid communities we support. Rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and protein, its leaves combat malnutrition, while its seeds purify water, and its oil has both culinary and cosmetic uses. Moringa is incredibly drought-resistant, thriving in poor soils with minimal water, making it a sustainable solution for food security in harsh climates. Additionally, its deep-root system prevents soil erosion, enhances soil fertility, and sequesters carbon, contributing to climate change mitigation. By integrating Moringa into agroforestry systems, we build the capacity of the communities with a resilient, nutrient-rich, and income-generating crop that sustains both people and the planet.

Special Program

Special Program is a holistic initiative that enhances community resilience through reproductive health education and comprehensive life skills training.

The reproductive health component addresses teenage pregnancies and menstrual health challenges by providing Menstrual Health and Hygiene (MHH) sessions and distributing dignity kits in Mombasa and Kwale counties. It also raises family planning awareness, ensuring that both young mothers and fathers are well-informed.

The life skills training covers a wide range of essential skills, including effective decision-making, communication, self-awareness, stress management, critical and creative thinking, peaceful conflict resolution, leadership and integrity, and financial literacy. Communities also engage in eco-friendly initiatives, such as using recycled milk packets for tree nurseries, in line with NEMA’s environmental regulations. Additionally, financial literacy training helps communities form savings groups like merry-go-round and SILC, enabling them to pool resources, access loans, and launch social enterprises.

AIRS PROGRAM

The Automated Incentives for Regenerative Stewardship (AIRS) project is a fintech initiative designed to promote environmental restoration and regenerative economic practices in Kenya. AIRS leverages satellite remote sensing, on-ground data collection, and blockchain technology to incentivize sustainable land management. By integrating these technologies, AIRS ensures that individuals and communities engaged in reforestation, soil conservation, and water system restoration are fairly compensated for their efforts.

AIRS combines satellite remote sensing and on-ground data collection to verify restoration efforts, ensuring transparency and automation. This system addresses the funding gap for African smallholder farmers, who play a critical role in restoring degraded land.

By turning regenerative results into tradeable digital assets, AIRS creates a decentralized economy for climate action, allowing global investors and donors to support verified environmental efforts. The project is already scaling up in 2025, driving sustainable livelihoods while restoring ecosystems.

This program empowers individuals, fosters self-sufficiency, and strengthens communities, ensuring both social and economic well-being alongside environmental restoration.
