About Tuinuane Kwa Pamoja

Community Driven and Creating Lasting Opportunity.

Tuinuane Kwa Pamoja (TKP) is a refugee-led organization operating in Kakuma refugees camp to promote learning, skills, dignity, self-reliance, and sustainable development. The name Tuinuane Kwa Pamoja means “Together We Rise.” It reflects our belief that sustainable change is created when communities come together, support one another, and take collective ownership of solutions that improve lives and create opportunities for a better future. We work alongside refugee and host communities to address barriers that limit children, women, people with disability young people, and vulnerable families from reaching their full potential.

We believe lasting change is strongest when communities are not only beneficiaries, but also leaders of the solutions that affect their lives. TKP therefore welcomes donors, institutions, foundations, businesses, and development partners who share our commitment to inclusive, locally led, and sustainable community development.
