Catalysing private sector investment into African agriculture
Generating new approaches to counter violent extremism in East Africa
Supporting effective community engagement by the extractives industry in Kenya
Establishing a new organisational strategy for tackling HIV in Southern Africa

Wasafiri’s consultants, researchers and facilitators bring powerful design and systems-based expertise to unearth new insights, strategies and partnerships to drive change at scale
We’re constantly collaborating with leaders, thinkers, entrepreneurs and practitioners to deepen our understanding of how to generate positive impact at scale. We’ve developed Systemcraft as a practical framework for strengthening systems leadership and incubating transformational approaches to systems-change.
