Act.Change.Transform. (formerly called Pact Kenya) is a local Kenyan NGO that works with others for positive change. Our Mission is to enable citizens and communities in Kenya and neighbouring countries to live a life of dignity by strengthening individuals and organizations to be effective agents of positive change.

Act.Change.Transform. does this through grant management, capacity building and organisational development. We implement a number of programmes and projects that provide this support to nearly 100 other NGOs or Community Based Organizations in Kenya.

Act.Change.Transform. implements both large complex multi-million dollar programmes and much smaller more locally based and specific projects. To bring some focus to our efforts Act.Change.Transform. has chosen to work across 4 Strategic Platforms – Democracy and Governance, Conflict Management, Environment and Natural Resource Management and Women’s Empowerment. We are supported by a variety of different donors. 

WHAT WE DO

Act.Change.Transform.  builds the capacity of local people, organisations, networks and coalitions working in one or more of 4 strategic platforms that Act.Change.Transform. believes are crucial to reducing poverty and to attaining sustainable development in Kenya.
