Food, Water & Climate
Climate-smart agriculture, soil health, and equitable WASH access for resilient rural communities.
- About Wema
An NGO rooted in Wema
Wema is Swahili for "goodness." We translate that goodness into climate-smart livelihoods, healthier mothers and children, equitable education, and women- and youth-led enterprises across Africa.
- Why Wema
Empowerment is a shared movement
Vulnerable communities — particularly women, youth, and persons with disabilities — become resilient when climate-smart livelihoods, quality healthcare, inclusive education, and dignified work are within their reach. That's the work.
- Launching in 2 counties; scaling to 4+ counties by 2029
- Targeting 250,000 lives reached by 2034 — our endline year
- Aligned with the SDGs and the AU-CAADP framework
Our Approach
From intervention to lasting impact
01
Empower
We invest in women, youth, and persons with disabilities — the people closest to the problem and the solution.
02
Strengthen
We layer climate-smart livelihoods, healthcare, and inclusive education so resilience compounds across systems.
03
Transform
We document, advocate, and influence policy — turning local wins into national and continental change.

- Theory of Change
Why we work across pillars, not silos
Poverty, hunger, poor health, climate vulnerability, gender inequality — these are interconnected. Wema's Theory of Change treats them that way. By layering climate-smart livelihoods on top of healthcare, education, and women-led enterprises, communities don't just survive — they become self-reliant.
