LIFE IN KAKUMA:
LIVING UNDER HARSH CONDITIONS

Kakuma Refugee Camp exists in one of the most challenging environments in the region.
Extreme heat, limited water, and poor soil make survival difficult. Many refugees face overcrowded living conditions, reliance on food aid, and limited opportunities to earn a living. Environmental degradation continues to worsen daily life, making long-term solutions more important than ever.

OUR IMPACT

Despite these challenges, Kakuma is also a place of strong potential.
Through community-led initiatives, we work to create sustainable solutions that help people build more resilient and dignified lives.
