Driving Climate Resilience Through Local Action and Innovation

At Jenga Future, our programs are designed to address the root causes of climate vulnerability while empowering communities to become active agents of change. Each initiative focuses on building resilience, restoring ecosystems, and fostering sustainable livelihoods through regenerative agriculture, forestry, and climate education. Our three flagship programs — Roots for Resilience, Forest Whisperers Movement, and TerraTech Academy — work hand in hand to create a lasting impact across generations.

  • Roots for Resilience restores land and secures livelihoods.

  • Forest Whisperers Movement nurtures environmental consciousness among the youth.

  • Our capacity-building and knowledge-sharing arm which focuses on climate innovations and advocacy.

Roots for Resilience

Restoring Land. Rebuilding Lives. Regenerating Hope.

    The Roots for Resilience program is a locally led and data-driven initiative aimed at reducing landslide risks, restoring degraded landscapes, and enhancing livelihoods among communities living along the Rift Valley escarpments.


    By integrating value-based tree planting with livelihood diversification, the program ensures that conservation and community prosperity go hand in hand. Women and youth are central to this effort — managing nurseries, cultivating coffee seedlings, and driving reforestation efforts.


    Key Objectives:

  • Plant 1 million coffee seedlings along the Elgeyo Marakwet escarpments by 2028.

  • Restore over 1,000 acres of degraded land.

  • Positively impact 5,000+ farmers through training and participation.

  • Promote agroforestry and soil conservation practices to mitigate landslides.

    • Impact so far:

  • Launched in 2024 with two nurseries in Soy South Ward, the program has already produced over 10,000 seedlings successfully planted on farms — demonstrating the power of locally led restoration.

Forest Whisperers Movement

Nurturing a Generation of Eco-Stewards.

    The Forest Whisperers Movement is a youth-focused conservation initiative that seeks to cultivate environmental stewardship and intergenerational knowledge exchange. It brings together schools, families, and communities to reimagine forests as living classrooms where people can learn, reflect, and reconnect with nature.


    Through this movement, young people are empowered to become custodians of future ecosystems, leading reforestation and climate action campaigns within their communities.


    Core activities include:

  • Forest walks and tree learning experiences that deepen ecological awareness.

  • Environmental education sessions in schools and communities.

  • Intergenerational dialogues between elders and youth on forest heritage and conservation ethics.

TerraTech Academy

Empowering Communities Through Knowledge and Innovation.

    The TerraTech Academy is Jenga Future’s capacity-building and knowledge-sharing arm, serving as the bridge between science, technology, and community wisdom. It integrates climate education across all our programs — equipping communities with the skills, information, and tools to adapt to changing environmental conditions.


    By merging indigenous knowledge with innovative practices, TerraTech Academy is creating a culture of learning and resilience, preparing communities to thrive in the face of climate uncertainty.


    What the Academy does:

  • Delivers training workshops, community sessions, and radio programs on climate adaptation, regenerative farming, and sustainable forestry.

  • Encourages data-driven decision-making by introducing simple technologies for community-based monitoring.

  • Provides practical skills in nursery management, sustainable agriculture, and policy advocacy.
