Agrivoltaics Training in Kilifi

Uplift Her's Executive Director and Program Officer conducted a hands-on training on climate-smart agriculture through agrivoltaics in Mnarani, Kilifi County. The session introduced women and young mothers to the concept of cultivating crops under solar panels—demonstrating how the same piece of land can sustainably produce both food and clean energy. Through practical learning and discussions, participants gained insight into how agrivoltaics can strengthen climate resilience, improve food security, and expand economic opportunities for women-led households.
