At Haller, we believe education is the key to a sustainable future. Our award-winning, solar-powered Education Centre in Mombasa has been a beacon of learning since 2006, home to Kenya’s first free children’s library. Every year, over 5,000 children from informal settlements visit this safe space, gaining access to books, IT resources, and vocational training.

Now, we’re looking for a passionate volunteer to help revitalise our children’s library in a hands-on, impactful way! This exciting project will take place over 4-6 weeks in April and May 2025.

Land stewardship is “the most precious resource to ensure the stability and prosperity of billions of people around the world.” Sustainable land management has the power to address today’s global challenges and create a blueprint to a better future on land for all generations.

Smallholder farmers play an increasingly important role in food safety. 80% of food in developing regions is grown by smallholders, and with food demand expected to grow by more than 70% by 2050, there is a clear need to install sustainable food systems that work for these communities.

Dr Haller’s methodology extends throughout all of the work the Haller Foundation carries out today. Here we explore just a few of the ways we’re currently working to restore degraded landscapes and protect the environment.

On International Day of Plant Health, we recognise the global challenge of plant health that affects livelihoods worldwide.

At Haller, inspired by Dr. Rene Haller's work, we are committed to supporting and celebrating local smallholder farmers in adopting pesticide-free practices that respect biodiversity and improve crop health. And increasing access to sustainable agricultural practices that ensure safe food and trade, enhancing community livelihoods globally!

Studies have demonstrated the increased penetration of mobile technology across Africa. But to build a more up to date picture, specifically focused on the use of technology in agriculture, Felix Young set out to survey smallholder farmers across 15 African countries.

Clean energy sourcing has formed an imperative part of Haller’s mission to assist rural Kenyan communities. The introduction of GravityLights provides a self-sustainable lighting system for the communities that Haller works with.
