In eastern Africa’s rural communities the challenges of extreme poverty, food insecurity and biodiversity loss are being intensified by climate change and global economic instability.
The key to addressing each of these challenges lies in agriculture.

Meanwhile, by farming sustainably and in harmony with nature, farmers can help protect ecosystems and restore biodiversity.

What is Farm Africa?
Farm Africa is a leading NGO that works in partnership with smallholder farmers and small businesses to unlock the transformative potential of sustainable and effective agriculture.
We are long-established and our evidence-based programmes have been refined over time through detailed reporting of effectiveness and results.
We have over 200 team members operating across eastern Africa, with programmes running in DR Congo, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda. The vast majority of our team are from the local area, can speak the local language and have a deep understanding of the local context.
“I am delighted to support the Giving Circle for Farm Africa, helping to unlock the potential of young entrepreneurs and women in rural communities. In a region with high unemployment, and in the face of the climate crisis, it is more important than ever to invest in sustainable agriculture.”
