About Us
HDI Kenya - About us
Human Development International (HDI) is a nonprofit organization officially registered in 2011, with roots in community engagement dating back to 2007. Founded in Kenya, HDI focuses on rural development in arid and semi-arid regions (ASAL), prioritizing sustainable agriculture, water resource management, and economic empowerment. Key achievements include;
- constructing water pans,
- boreholes, and solar-powered poultry hatcheries;
- establishing farmer training programs; and
- launching microcredit initiatives.
HDI operates locally and globally, with a fundraising office in Washington, D.C., and partnerships with organizations like JICA and the Doen Foundation. Its work targets smallholder farmers, women, youth, and marginalized groups to foster resilience and self-sufficiency.
