Since our founding in 2005, EcoAgriculture Partners has led efforts in the region to implement policy and land management actions that simultaneously address poverty, food security, forest conversion and biodiversity loss. Strategic partnerships with community-based organizations, governments, and international conservation organizations allow us to build effective rural development programs, pilot important innovations, and scale promising policies and projects. These actions have returned positive results, such as a steady rise of income for farmers and eliminated deforestation in communities in Kenya. Through this experience, we have demonstrated that concerted action holds the power to uplift and empower communities to take charge of the sustainability of their landscapes and livelihoods.
EcoAgriculture Partners maintains close relationships with its partners on the ground around East Africa to scale-up the impact of landscape initiatives. Through these networks, we connect landscapes across East Africa to encourage knowledge-sharing between key policy, business, and farmer organization leaders. Our continuing research and analyses of land use practices provide important insights into how best to manage a landscape to improve resilience, mitigate and adapt to climate change, and relieve socio-economic conditions. The expertise of our staff and partners is compiled into guides, manuals, and monitoring and assessment tools that make sustainable land management and best practices feasible for farmers and transparent for policymakers to support.
