Restoration at scale across Africa’s blue carbon frontier requires appropriate finance. Twende connects credible programmes, proven first on Kenya’s coast, with the funding, technical support and investment structures needed to move from site-level activity to durable landscape and seascape outcomes.
Grants and philanthropy, climate finance, biodiversity and nature finance, and development-partner programmes, the funding routes that support restoration work directly, from site-level activity to programme-level scale.
Corporate partnerships and research and innovation funding, for organisations and institutions looking to support credible, evidence-led restoration work with a defined technical or programme focus.
Project-preparation finance and blue-economy enterprise finance, the funding that turns a well-designed restoration or livelihoods programme into an implementable, fundable project.
Carbon-market readiness where appropriate, and responsible private investment in nature-based solutions, approached with the same evidence discipline as every other part of Twende’s work. Carbon credits are not treated as the business model, but as one possible outcome of credible, well-measured restoration.
A prospective funder should be able to see the problem, the intervention and its rationale, the communities and governance involved, the evidence, the technical approach, the safeguards, the monitoring plan, the budget logic, scalability, risks, partnership opportunities, and the route from funding to measurable additional impact.
Twende Green Planet reports on its own funding with the same rigour it applies to programme monitoring. Kenya’s Blue Carbon Ecosystems NDC Implementation and Investment Plan sets out investment targets for the country’s blue carbon sector as a whole; Twende references these figures to describe the landscape it operates within, and reports separately, and transparently, on funding it has itself secured. That distinction is maintained in every funder conversation.
Tuva Adams TuvaChairmanTwende Green Planet is chaired by Tuva Adams Tuva, based in Nairobi. The rest of our leadership team will be introduced here as the organisation grows.
This is not a conference of conversations. It is a platform where partnerships are forged, commitments are made, and collective action drives lasting change.
Karibu! I am Green. Ask me about our programmes, the December Legacy Programme and Summit, Atlas, tickets or how to support restoration.
