Ahadi Achievers

Enlightenment is brittle without empowerment. Togetherness is the commitment to communicate more authentically, vulnerably and realistically.

Who are we

Ahadi Achievers Empowerment (AAE) is an ambitious organization based in Kenya, Makueni County, dedicated to champion community sustainability through empowerment programs, sustainable development goals (SDGs) and equitable development schemes that boost income generating activities both agricultural and social.

“Ahadi” is a Swahili word that means promise. We engage the community through dialogue, social media, sports, and events. In the long run, our aim is to solidify local interactions with bordering CBOs, self-help groups, and institutions around Makueni county. As part of its growth, the organization’s leadership and management are structured to allow effective implementation of its activities.

Our Work

Ahadi Achievers Empowerment CBO works on the following thematic areas:

Social empowerment of youths

Empowerment is the determinant of youth participation in local and national decision-making policies. It should embrace the sharing of knowledge by active stakeholders and the contribution of the youth. AAE emphasizes collective efforts to draw in empowerment models which include a welcoming safe environment fit for equitable power-sharing between adults and the youth. We integrate individual and community level empowerment of the vulnerable groups through training, talent search activities, social programs, and capacity building initiatives

Enterprise assistance

Enterprises include business primarily set up the community for profit making, and to provide social and environmental dividends to community members. AAE recognizes the necessity to adopt a livelihood approach for development and resource management. This approach is a key indicator or progress and sustainable wealth creation for individuals, families and the community of Makueni County.

Enhance income-generating activities

It is critical that rural poverty is addressed in both poverty reduction strategies and, generally, as part of policies seeking to promote rural development. When thinking about economic structuring for rural development, AAE thinks about the full range of rural income generating activities (RIGA), both agricultural and non agricultural, carried out by rural households. This can allow an understanding of the relationship between the various economic activities that take place in the rural space, and their implications for economic growth and poverty reduction.

Climate action

Achieving SDG 13- Climate Action requires a deeper understanding of the interlink between climate change and sustainable development governance. They are better implemented through delivering development schemes which, tackle poverty while transforming ecosystem stewardship and supporting effective climate action. AAE utilizes employment schemes that create assets which support collective ecosystem stewardship. They already contain environmental objectives such as ecosystem protection, conservation of land, water and soils, and recovery from climate-related disasters. They provide community members the opportunity to work on creation of natural or built infrastructure and incorporate elements such as strengthening of local institutions

Women and youth

Women and youth empowerment is a purposeful plan directed towards bridging a perceived gap between an advantaged group and a disadvantaged segment of a population so as to enable the underprivileged group to attain sustainably improved level of wellbeing. AAE multiplies the effect of human investment on the basis of skills and knowledge in youths and women for higher economic benefit. Women impact a greater sense of interpersonal lives of members of a family and household in their capacity, while the youth are venturesome, inventive and bears the genes for economic and biological development and sustenance of a society.

ICT Programs

Spectacular growth in information and communication technologies (ICTs), and specifically the internet, has the potential to offer a new generation of tools for community development. The internet, with its huge quantities and variety of content, is increasingly becoming an effective delivery and exchange system for information and knowledge, continuing education and learning. AAE makes available ICT programs, and devices that raise the value of relevant information generated and disseminated to the youth for content creation and use.

Our numbers

We have numbers that push us to give in our best and make sure that we break our own records. We are happy to be growing and helping more day by day.
