Balancing Culture, Nature, and Local Innovation
Known for its vast grasslands and overall natural beauty, Kenya is also one of Africa’s most innovative countries. A leader in technology and startups, Nairobi has emerged as a tech center on the continent. Transitions around environmentalism, economic growth, and access to mobile phones are simultaneously taking place in the country’s more rural communities. The foundation of this contemporary growth across Kenya is born from a culture of creativity and responsibility.
Whether focusing on entrepreneurship, urbanization, or technology in Nairobi or community and environmental issues in rural Kenya, Atlas Workshops programs in Kenya have the benefit of diversity. In the Masai Mara, we can investigate locally-led conservation work, while Nairobi’s neighborhoods are a gateway to learn about the informal economy and the rising middle class. Kenya is an incredible place to challenge assumptions and investigate transformation.
