Forests for Change

Kijani rehabilitates indigenous forests by empowering young Kenyans through training in agroforestry and cultivation of non-timber forest products. 

Kijani believes that through innovation we can transform the challenges we face as a planet into opportunities for sustainable growth. Kijani itself is a youth-led NGO formed by young Kenyans with support from people in Germany and the US, who envision a just and sustainable future. They have diverse backgrounds and share an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for inspiring a sustainable future. As young people themselves, their target group is the youth, despite also working with other forest-based demographic groups. KIjani also provides Kenyan and international students as well as researchers with an opportunity to gain practical experience in developing innovative concepts in an interdisciplinary team, and in collaboration with local communities.

Their goal is to become an incubator for innovative thinking around sustainable development and environmental rehabilitation in African forest areas. 

Kijani works to give forests lasting value whith tangible economic benefits for the surrounding communities.  They are piloting a simple, cost-effective agroforestry conservation model that can achieve sustainable forest management and help local farmers improve their livelihoods.
