WELCOME to PENHA 

The Pastoral and Environmental Network in the Horn of Africa PENHA is an international NGO led and inspired by Africans, mostly from the Horn Region

PENHA's mission is to reduce poverty among the pastoralists in the Horn of Africa through the empowerment of communities and to foster sustainable and dignified livestock-based and non-livestock-based livelihoods.


We believe seeding the ideas of change today
gives our people a better tomorrow.
 
BBC Radio 4 Appeal given by
 
Rageh Omaar

 
The broadcast can be heard on the BBC Radio 4 website by clicking on
"Listen to Rageh".

 
Seeds can become many things.
 
A seed can be a weed in the park,
a plant in a science project,
or a daisy planted in your garden.
 
A seed can also be the beginning of an idea
 
PENHA believes that casting the first seeds of change
today will lead to a better understanding
of the environment, and a future tomorrow.
 
All donations to PENHA from this appeal will form
the basis for an investment programme geared
at providing alternate skills and improving livelihoods
for pastoralists in the Horn of Africa.
