Kilimora CLG is a social enterprise implementing research and product development solutions using emerging technology like AI to bridge the gap between youth, women-led, and family-owned SMEs and organizations with the global climate finance
We are enhancing a just transition to climate change by localising best practices to democratise access to patient capital and climate finance in agriculture, energy, and special programmes committed to integrating sustainability in their project designs through technical assistance, research, and product development.
Our Impact at a Glance
Who We Are
Solving from the Context of the Global South
Kilimora CLG is a social enterprise implementing research and product development solutions using emerging technology like AI to bridge the gap between youth and women-led SMEs and global climate finance. In agriculture, capital has been designed for large landowners and corporate entities. Traditional environmental assessments cost thousands of dollars, pricing out the very people who steward the majority of Africa’s arable land. We are changing that by making nature intelligence affordable and actionable. Beyond measuring impact, we turn environmental stewardship into reliable income. We are building for Africa by adapting the best global practices to the realities of the field.
Driving a Just Transition Across Key Sectors
Technical assistance, MRV research, and product development for cooperative farming SMEs accessing climate finance through AgriKonnekt.
Research and product development supporting clean cooking and distributed renewable energy enterprises to structure verified emission reduction projects.
Advisory and research services for organisations integrating sustainability, GEDSI, and just transition frameworks into project designs.
We Believe in
Our SDGs
Kilimora’s operating model is intentionally designed to align with international development priorities by transforming environmental activity into systemic socioeconomic value. Our progress is measured against the following United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Advanced through direct income generation mechanisms that connect smallholder producers to formal financial systems, enabling predictable and traceable revenue streams at the individual level
Addressed through the promotion of regenerative agricultural practices and structured market access systems that improve productivity, reduce losses, and strengthen supply chain efficiency across cooperative networks.
Embedded as a structural design principle across all operations, ensuring equitable access to financial flows, participation in value chains, and decision-making within community and enterprise systems.
Operationalised through verified environmental performance systems that measure and monetise climate-positive activities, enabling participation in emerging environmental markets.
Supported through the creation of skilled roles within rural economies, enterprise development pathways for youth and women-led businesses, and financial products aligned with agricultural income cycles
Central to the model, which redistributes access to climate-linked financial opportunities from centralised institutions to decentralised community-level actors.
Underpins implementation, with cross-sector collaboration enabling alignment between research institutions, financial systems, public sector frameworks, and community-based organisations.
