One World, Nothing Else...

Eine Welt, mehr gibt's nicht!! thats is the Slogan of Bündins Eine Welt- Schleswig Holstein and with which we are honoured to be members and partners.
With this partnership our journey towards Sustainable Development in our home country and especially our coffee producing community of Nyeri County gets much lighter and hopeful...

The crew behind Kedovo e.V of Germany
When we formed Kedovo e.V  we believed in building partnerships with the communities of the Aberdare Mountains in Kenya, building partnerships with the communities of our new home in Germany and especially in the State of Schleswig Holstein, we believed in 'Alliances of one World'....and yes our journey has not been easy but we believe we will make it happen.

Our objective is to bring in skills and expertise, and mobilize resources to ultimately garner Sustainable Progress for the communities of The Aberdare Mountains.....we let our communities understand that the concept that we have towards Sustainable Livelihoods does not rely on donor funding...NO! our concept is to guide our communities to be self-reliant and it doesnt have an end; it is going to be there for years to come- we have taken the first baby steps, what we need to know is where we are set to go, things could only get better...

Since the onset of our Program, our journey has been long- but we are now a community with their own brand of coffee in Germany! and our partnerships between the coffee producing communities and the coffee consuming communities have never been stronger and transparent....

We continue implementing and developing Rural-Based Solutions to Rural Development by encouraging the participation of rural communities in building their capabilities and capacities so that they can be self reliant. This enables communities to increase control over their lives...

We continue forming Partnerships.....

KEDOVO e.V

KEnya DOrf VOlunteers (KEDOVO) e.V was founded in Kaltenkirchen Germany as a non-profit organization with the goal of creating economic livelihood opportunities in rural Kenya.



We work with grassroot communities of The Aberdare Mountains by improving their economic development through sustainable, self -reliance intiatives striving for ''a community of empowered women any youth living with respect and dignity''

This blog was created so that volunteers can share and post their experiences and feelings about their different projects and the kenyan lifestyle. It is a good opportunity to keep in contact with all our volunteers in our journey towards sustainable livelihoods. Furthermore we want to create the chance for other people to get more and detailed information about the volunteer projects and the life in Kenya. We hope that this blog emphasizes more people to become a part of the KEDOVO family  as a volunteer to make a real difference.
