Resilience Centre
The Resilience Centre,
Africa has the world’s largest reserve for renewable energy- solar, wind, hydro, biomass; the highest potential for food production, whose importance only rises as climate change, led by sea-level rise, engulfs large agricultural areas in Europe, Asia and Latin America; as well as enormous freshwater resources over 90% of which lie unutilised. Despite this natural capital, Africa has the lowest per capita access to energy, food and water, a situation that is getting worse with population growth, environmental degradation and adverse climate impacts.
The Resilience Centre, Nairobi seeks to leverage private sector finance and knowledge to catalyse investment in the energy, food and water nexus, working simultaneously with national government institutions and local authorities, to strengthen economic and social capital formation, while improving skills, creating efficient work and delivering essential services. The Resilience Centre purposes to trigger investment in public infrastructure on goods, services and information, engaging with different business and community interests to grow sustainable assets for the market, the private sector and the communities.
Commercialising Smallholder Farming
Kenya has the largest, most diversified economy in East Africa with agriculture being the backbone of the economy and also central to the country’s development strategy. More than 75 percent of Kenyans make some part of their living in agriculture, and the sector accounts for more than a fourth of Kenya’s gross domestic product (GDP).
Transforming Waste to Water, Heat and Power
The project creates a large number of skilled employment for youth and women but also brings in unskilled labour. One of the fascinating features of this project is that it highly values plastic waste, rubber tyres, oil and other high calorific material that is normally a major problem in disposal sites. One of our first acts will be to engage youth to bring in all the plastic they can find- from drainages, illegal dumpsites

Harnessing Drone Technology for Sustainable Agriculture
Resilience Centre has incorporated drones with the aim of revolutionizing traditional practices across renewable energy, water management, and small-scale farming. In small-scale farming, resilience utilization of drones empower farmers with precision agriculture services, crop monitoring, and livestock management, driving efficiency and sustainability throughout the agricultural value chain.
