Kisii Innovation Lab
Kisii Innovation Lab is a social design space for inclusion in Kenya, driving change through five core pillars: Inclusive Education & Training, Climate Change, Democracy & Governance, Economic Empowerment, and Data & Innovation. We bridge gaps by aligning policy, technology, and community action to empower children and adults with disabilities.
Kisii Innovation Lab is a registered Non-Governmental Organization in Kenya. Our vision is a Kenya where empowered communities, driven by inclusive innovation, create a just and sustainable society for all.
We use human-centered design to create inclusive solutions. We work in rural Kenyan counties, partnering with communities, Persons with Disabilities, County Governments, and CSOs. Our goal is to empower marginalized groups through innovative programs and collaborative action, fostering sustainable development.
Our Pillars
Our Foundation
Inclusive Education
We champion equitable access to quality education and skills development for all, especially children and adults with disabilities. Our programs create inclusive learning environments, train educators in accessible pedagogy, and empower individuals, including Persons with Disabilities, with the tools for lifelong learning and active participation in society. We believe that education is a fundamental right and a catalyst for individual and community transformation.
Climate Change
Our Climate Change pillar focuses on ensuring Persons with Disabilities are at the forefront of climate action. We empower communities to develop inclusive adaptation strategies, promote sustainable practices, and advocate for climate-smart policies that actively involve and benefit Persons with Disabilities, creating a more resilient and equitable future for all
