Soil doesn’t send an invoice. Neither do pollinators nor the trust a cooperative builds with its members over the years. Yet these invisible flows quietly shape the profitability, resilience, and market access of Kenya’s agribusinesses long before they appear on a balance sheet. This was the key takeaway from the TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project’s Private Sector […]

What does it take to move from evidence to action in transforming Kenya’s food systems? For the TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project, the answer lies in bringing together the right people to interrogate evidence, validate findings, and co-create practical solutions. It is against this backdrop that the Project convened the Second Regional Community of Practice (CoP) Meetings

The TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project continues to play a pivotal role in advancing sustainable food systems and ecosystem restoration through strategic partnerships, evidence-based decision-making, and policy engagement. Recent engagements with key stakeholders underscore the project’s growing contribution to Kenya’s efforts to build climate-resilient landscapes, restore degraded ecosystems, and accelerate the transition to nature-positive, sustainable food systems.

In March 2026, the TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project met with representatives from the Council of Governors (CoG) to align county governance with science-based policies for sustainable, resilient, and equitable food systems. This strategic engagement set the stage for integrating long-term sustainability into agricultural and environmental decision-making. The TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project uses the TEEBAgriFood framework, applying “True

Earlier this month, the TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project convened senior policymakers from the National Government and the Council of Governors for an intensive two-day training on True Value Accounting (TVA) and the TEEBAgriFood Evaluation Framework. At a time when Kenya’s agri-food systems are facing increasing pressure from climate change, environmental degradation, and food insecurity, the training

Kenya’s Food Systems are at a crossroads with the combined pressures of climate change, biodiversity loss, persistent nutrition challenges, and widening economic inequality. These intersecting crises are not isolated; they are deeply interconnected, shaping how food is produced, distributed, consumed, and valued across the nation. As evidence continues to emerge on sustainable and nature-positive pathways,

We often say, “We have the data.” But a more important question lingers beneath the surface: do we have the right data? For many practitioners and policymakers, data on food systems are typically reduced to a narrow set of indicators such as yield per hectare or the number of bags produced per area. These metrics are undeniably

In this context, the TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project recently convened a Community of Practice (CoP) Plenary meeting, bringing together stakeholders from national and county governments, the private sector, civil society, research institutions, youth groups, and community-based organisations. The engagement provided a strategic platform to strengthen understanding of the TEEBAgriFood Framework and the True Value Accounting (TVA)

Earlier this week, the TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project convened a high-level stakeholder meeting with representatives from the Kenya Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development (MoALD), reaffirming a shared commitment to evidence-driven transformation of Kenya’s agri-food systems. The engagement provided a strategic platform to align TEEB Agri-Food evidence with key national policy processes shaping the future of

On Tuesday, 9th December 2025, the TEEBAgriFood Kenya Project team convened a strategic engagement meeting with the Kenya Ministry of Agriculture to introduce the Project and explore opportunities for deeper collaboration formally. This meeting built on earlier engagements during the National Technical Committee on Agroecology workshop in Naivasha, Kenya, and a subsequent virtual session that
