Intergenerational learning
At RIEKO, we harness the power of intergenerational learning, bringing together the elderly, youth, and children to share experiences and foster mutual respect.

We focus on providing education to children in the care of grandparents or young mothers living on less than USD 1 per day
Community advocacy
We raise awareness on social issues, promote the rights of the elderly and children, and encourage community participation. Our Skills Training programs offer practical skills in sustainable farming, entrepreneurship, technology, and personal care, empowering individuals for economic independence and self-reliance. Through advocacy and training, we give a voice to the vulnerable and create pathways to success. Join us in building an informed, skilled, and empowered community!
Climate Justice
We are committed to climate justice through sustainable practices that benefit both the environment and our community. We grow and sell indigenous vegetables like spider plant, which thrive in local climates and offer nutritious, sustainable food. Eco-friendly technologies like solar dryers and charcoal coolers help preserve produce and reduce energy use. Our seed bank conserves local plant varieties, ensuring biodiversity and food security. We produce fire briquettes as a cleaner, sustainable alternative to charcoal, reducing deforestation and providing efficient fuel.
We are working towards achievement of SDG
