Focus Areas

Four Pillars of
Lasting Change

Tap any area to explore our work on the ground.

🌾
Agriculture, Livestock & Fisheries
Climate-smart farming, value chains, and extension services

Climate-smart approaches to improve livelihoods, increase productivity, and strengthen food security through technology transfer, early warning systems, and effective extension services. CRAH supports sorghum cultivation, indigenous poultry value chains, and fishing community livelihoods across Kenya.

🌿
Environmental Management
Agroforestry, conservation, and clean energy

Supporting conservation, sustainable land use, agroforestry projects, urban afforestation, and clean energy technologies including solar lamp adoption for lake fishing communities. Our Integrated Schools Agroforestry Pilot Project (ISAPP) plants trees at primary schools across the region.

🤝
Local Community Development
Inclusive governance, partnerships, and social wellbeing

Promoting inclusive governance and social wellbeing — ensuring persons with disabilities, indigenous peoples, widows, the elderly, and youth are active participants in economic and social development. CRAH works closely with WFP and county agriculture departments to deliver tools and support to smallholder farmers.

📚
Knowledge Management
On-farm demonstrations, farmer exchanges, and e-extension

On-farm demonstrations, farmer-to-farmer learning exchanges, e-extension platforms, and training materials that put actionable knowledge directly in the hands of smallholders and fishing communities. Our field officers work alongside farmers to demonstrate post-harvest technologies and best practices.

Our Goal

Reducing Poverty.
Improving Livelihoods.

CRAH's overall goal is to reduce poverty and improve the livelihoods of target communities — empowering rural people by strengthening grassroots capacity and linking them with local institutions for sustainable economic outcomes.
