RTI International Kenya

RTI International operates a major regional office in Nairobi that supports its work across Kenya and the wider African region. The organization uses research, technical expertise, and evidence-based solutions to address complex development challenges. Its Kenya portfolio spans agriculture, health, education, environment, governance, and economic growth.

In agriculture, RTI supports smallholder farmers, cooperatives, and agribusinesses through market-system strengthening. It promotes efficient value chains, better market access, and improved productivity. These efforts help farmers increase their incomes and contribute to higher food security. RTI works closely with local partners to ensure that solutions fit the realities of Kenyan farming communities.

The organisation also plays an important role in education and youth development. It supports initiatives that improve learning outcomes, enhance teacher training, and expand opportunities for young people. Through targeted programmes, RTI helps build skills that increase employability and support long-term economic mobility.

RTI engages in health and sanitation projects as well. It helps strengthen service delivery systems, expand access to clean water, and promote healthier communities. Its work in governance focuses on transparency, institutional capacity, and evidence-based policymaking. These interventions help national and county governments design better policies and deliver services more effectively.

The Nairobi office provides project management, procurement, technical guidance, and operational support for RTI’s country and regional programmes. By combining global expertise with local presence, RTI International Kenya delivers practical and sustainable solutions. Its work strengthens institutions, empowers communities, and supports long-term development and resilience across Kenya and the region.
