Fédération Kajoor Jankeen

Fédération Kajoor Jankeen is a local community development structure made up of 12 associations, working in the Thiès region, particularly in the departments of Thiès and Tivaouane. It also manages the National Family Security Grant Programme (Programme National des Bourses de Sécurité Familiale) on behalf of the Senegalese state. Our vision is of a world in which children, and women in particular, can fulfil their dreams and are free from the constraints of poverty and inequality. Our mission is to mobilise parents (and mothers especially) and children towards building a more equal society, with more resilient families and communities. 

Fédération Kajoor Jankeen has joined the third collective cycle of the Climate Action Accelerator to accelerate its low-carbon transition and move towards a more sustainable, resilient development model. This cycle provides a collaborative framework to:

• Better understand and regularly measure the organisation’s environmental footprint (carbon and waste)
• Identify the most relevant solutions and actions to implement in order to integrate sustainable practices
• Build an environmental roadmap tailored to its context and challenges
• Roll out and implement the first concrete solutions, including through support in securing funding

This represents an opportunity for Fédération Kajoor Jankeen to strengthen its impact while becoming part of a collective drive for innovation and resilience in the face of climate change.
