Karibu! SCOPE
Welcome to the Strengthening Community Partnership and Empowerment (SCOPE) website.
SCOPE is a registered Non-Governmental Organisation based in the Kilifi District of the Coast Province of Kenya. We work to improve the living standards of our community, some of the poorest in Kenya.
Our Strength
Our main strength is our ability to work closely ‘on the ground’ and understand the actual development needs of our community. Since we ourselves are from these communities, we have strong relationships with local chiefs, administration and government. Our network of Peer Educators allow us to mobilise large outreaches that allows us implement interventions even in the most rural and hardest to get to parts of our Communities.
You can read about what we do here.
