what we do
WATER AND SANITATION (WASH)
ICCDKenya improves access to clean and safe water by constructing reliable boreholes that serve entire communities, reducing the long distances families—especially women and children—often travel to fetch water. Alongside these water projects, the organization provides practical hygiene education that equips households with essential knowledge on sanitation, handwashing, and disease prevention. By combining clean water infrastructure with community-centered training, ICCD helps reduce waterborne illnesses, promotes healthier living conditions, and supports the overall well-being and resilience of the communities it serves.
Education & Youth Empowerment
ICCDKenya builds safe and well-equipped classrooms, provides essential learning materials, and supports scholarships for children to ensure that every learner—regardless of background—has access to quality education. By investing in school infrastructure and supplying textbooks, stationery, and other resources, ICCD creates a supportive learning environment that enables children to thrive academically. Through scholarship programs, the organization removes financial barriers that often keep vulnerable children out of school, allowing them to pursue their education with dignity and hope. Together, these efforts strengthen the foundation for a brighter future for every child.
Gender Equality & Social Inclusion
ICCDKenya promotes women’s empowerment by creating opportunities that enable women to gain confidence, build skills, and actively participate in social and economic development. Through targeted programs, the organization works to prevent gender-based violence by raising awareness, strengthening community protection systems, and offering vital support services to survivors. ICCD also uplifts women-led businesses by providing training, mentorship, and access to resources that help them grow sustainably and contribute meaningfully to their households and communities. Together, these efforts foster equality, dignity, and long-term resilience for women across the region.
Agriculture & Food Security
ICCDKenya trains farmers in sustainable farming methods, efficient irrigation practices, and agroforestry techniques to strengthen food security and promote long-term economic stability. Through hands-on demonstrations, capacity-building workshops, and continued field support, farmers learn how to improve soil health, increase crop yields, conserve water, and diversify their sources of income. These modern and environmentally friendly practices help communities adapt to climate change, reduce dependence on unpredictable rainfall, and develop resilient livelihoods. By empowering farmers with the knowledge and tools they need, ICCD contributes to healthier households and stronger, more sustainable local economies.
