As part of our new app launch, we wanted to take some time to reflect with our team in Kenya on the impact of the app to date, and why continued innovation is so important.

We’re delighted to launch a refreshed version of our award-winning Haller Farmers App, now available to download on the App and Google Play Stores.

The 15th of July marks the United Nations' World Youth Skills Day, focusing on "Youth Skills for Peace and Development." At Haller, we bridge the gap between education and employment through lifelong learning and community engagement. Our Haller Farmers App empowers youth with sustainable agriculture skills, benefiting people, the planet, and the economy.

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!

What does it mean to be a tech first charity in 2024? For th Haller Foundation, it means understanding the opportunities that technology can help to unlock, and working to ensure that those potentials are realised.

Amidst the escalating impacts of climate change in East Africa, the Haller Farmers App, launched by the Haller Foundation, emerges as a vital resource. Focused on nature-based solutions, the app imparts over 50 years of farming expertise, promoting climate-smart planting and the cultivation of indigenous crops to enhance land and soil quality. Embracing sustainability, it encourages innovative practices like using recycled materials as planters. Beyond environmental benefits, the app contributes to community resilience by diversifying food supplies, fostering economic stability, and preparing the next generation for sustainable farming practices, offering a tangible response to the urgent challenges posed by climate change in the region.
