As part of Haller's 20th Birthday Celebration, we hosted a panel discussion addressing Africa’s population boom and its global implications. This thought-provoking session was chaired by journalist David Eades on Friday 20th September 2024, and hosted at Mondrian Investment Capital, London. On the panel sat Ed Paice, author of" Youth Quake: Why African Demography Matters to the Rest of the World", Noni Muchiri of BBC World Service, Jessica Hagen-Zanker from the Overseas Development Institute (ODI) and David Ngome, Haller Foundation trustee and development communications consultant at the International Fertiliser Development Centre (IFDC).

The Haller Foundation announces our partnership with Tsavo Trust officially! A renowned organisation dedicated to wildlife conservation and enhancing the livelihoods of local communities in Kenya. We're working to utilise technology enhance education, support communities, and protect wildlife in Kenya's Tsavo Conservation Area.

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.

Through white labelling, the technology underpinning the Haller Farmer’s app’s functions can be adopted by other charities around the world, but the information on the app can be adapted to reflect the needs of smallholder farmers in that region.

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.

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.
