About Us
Our Vision
Communities inspired to work towards a hopeful future
Our theory of change
We believe that communities understand their development challenges and should therefore be at the frontline solving these challenges.
Our Mission
To promote social change and inclusion for the social development and integration of underprivileged communities
Our Services
Education
Education is the greatest equalizer. It gives children from underprivileged backgrounds a fighting chance in life. For children from Kenya’s arid and semi-arid lands, education remains a far-fetched dream..
Sustainable Livelihoods
Livelihoods are the capabilities, assets, and activities required for a means of living. Livelihoods are deemed sustainable when they can cope with and recover from stresses and shocks and maintain or enhance their capabilities, assets, and activities .
Peace & Governance
The peace component of this programme seeks to promote inter-communal harmony and peace in the northern region of the country. The organisation create platforms for inter-communal engagements such as sports, cultural events, among others.
Climate Change
Under this programme, JUHUDI works with the communities to reduce the negative effects of drought and other disasters and therefore save lives of the community members and secure their livelihoods and foundation of community assets.
Governance
JUHUDI has 7-member Board of Directors (4 men and 3 men). The Board of Directors steers the organisation toward a sound future by ensuring that it’s fulfilling its mission in the most effective way possible.
Disability Mainstreaming
Persons with disabilities in Arid and Semi-arid Lands (ASALs) , like all parts of Kenya, face attitudinal and stereotypical barriers. While the country has enacted the Persons With Disabilities Act (2003).
Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH)
The northern region of Kenya is largely arid and/or semi-arid. They lack permanent rivers. Many people in these regions lack piped water. They depend on the rare rain water as well as shallow wells and water pans.
