THE NAIROBI REGIONAL OFFICE

The Foundation in the East and Horn of Africa

Since 1991, the Foundation has been supporting development projects in Ethiopia and Eritrea, and in 1999, it expanded its activities to Somaliland and Djibouti. In 2001, the Foundation moved its Regional office to Nairobi, Kenya and over the years' its activities have also spread to Sudan and Uganda.

We mostly work in cooperation with project partners who focus on strengthening the process of raising awareness on ecology, gender democracy, conflict & dialogue, democratization and cultural identity.

The overall goal of our engagement in this region is to strengthen the Civil Society. As a result, most of the programs activities in the East and Horn have been in partnership with non-governmental organizations working in the environmental field, gender issues and conflict. The main exception is its cooperation with some government bodies to build their capacity and in developing their environmental policies.
