477 (29 female) masons have been trained in biogas plant construction in Kenya under the vocational skills development programme. Four technical training institutions offer biogas mason training.
Through a collaborative effort of UNICEF, the Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation and SNV in Kenya, thousands people benefit from a rural sanitation programme that saw villages in the country declared Open Defecation Free.
With SNV's support, the Anolei Women's Group has improved its operations and now makes daily deliveries of camel milk to Nairobi, Kenya's capital city.
SNV started work in Kenya in 1967, with operations mainly in the arid and semi arid part of the country. We have since expanded our work to include high potential areas of the country.
We provide advisory services, promote the development and brokering of knowledge, and support policy dialogue at national level. We provide services to government, local authorities, private sector, farmer groups and non-governmental organisations. Aligned with the Government of Kenya’s Vision 2030, we focus on opportunities in agriculture (dairy, extensive livestock and horticulture), water, sanitation and hygiene and renewable energy sectors.
To increase the effectiveness of our programmes and our resources, we engage in partnerships with other development agencies, as well as private and public sector organisations.
