A Place of Excellence

It's been over two months at the Peacemakers site in Embu County and we are starting to get more and more Kenyan organisations and groups coming to visit. We've seen improvements to the facilities that have meant hosting groups and events is both safe and more attractive.

^‍Our outdoor kitchen area has been maintained and improved to attach more bookings as we develop the hospitality side of the hub. Individuals and groups are finding the site comfortable and welcoming for their formal and informal activities. This is one side of the wider income generating ideas for the site.

In April, we saw Youth Promise bring 40 youths to the hub for some entrepreneur training and tour of the site. The youths are currently on an 8-week IT and Entrepreneurship programme with Youth Promise and came to learn about how our hub is used for both sustainable agriculture projects and affordable hospitality. They saw how the site interconnects its assets and also helped us with some ideas of possible future developments.

As the hub grows we will be looking for more opportunities to showcase excellent practice of sustainability and holistic practices for community projects and programmes.
