Someone asked Hassan Al Basri: "what is the secret of your piety?" He replied, "I understood four things": 1. I understood my rizq cannot be taken by anyone so my heart is content. 2. I understood no one can do my actions (worship) so i started doing them myself. 3. I understood Allah is watching me, so i felt shame to do wrong. 4. I understood death is waiting for me so i started to prepare for my meeting with Allah.

Smart Tech and Circular Innovation: Insights from Coastal Kenya Following our participation at Pwani Innovation Week 2025, KEPRO was honored to visit Baus Taka Enterprise/ @BausTaka, a tech-driven social enterprise redefining waste management in Mombasa, Kenya. Led by Dr Tayba Hatimy, Baus Taka is harnessing smart technology including a waste management app to tackle marine plastic pollution while creating real economic opportunities for coastal communities. Accompanied by Kamilla Heden Henningsen, Sector Counsellor – Circular Economy at the Danish Embassy in Kenya/ Denmark in Kenya, James Odongo, KEPRO’s CEO, witnessed firsthand how innovation and purpose can merge to drive circular transformation. This partnership represents more than collaboration, it’s a glimpse into Kenya’s sustainable future. When innovation, policy, and purpose converge, we unlock the power to transform waste into opportunity and communities into champions of circular change. #KEPROinAction #CircularEconomy #Sustainability

This week in Mombasa, KEPRO, led by our CEO James Odongo, was honoured to join stakeholders at the Pwani Innovation Week 2025, where the East Africa Community Women Waste Entrepreneur Association (EAC-WWA) was officially launched, a visionary regional initiative supported by EAC-GIZ and advanced by Baus Taka Enterprise, led by Dr Tayba Hatimy. The launch signals a powerful step toward strengthening micro, small, and medium enterprises #MSME participation and fostering inclusive trade across the green and blue circular economy in East Africa. At KEPRO, we believe that a truly circular economy must also be an inclusive economy. Our commitment to gender mainstreaming in Kenya’s waste ecosystem continues to open new pathways for women to lead, innovate, and thrive in sustainability-focused enterprises. Together, we’re building an inclusive circular future where innovation empowers communities, and sustainability drives shared prosperity. #KEPROinAction #CircularEconomy #Sustainability

For fifteen years, our departed leader, the Right Honourable Raila Amollo Odinga, served the people of Langata Constituency with unwavering dedication and distinction as their Member of Parliament. During this time, he was a tireless champion of justice, democracy, and progress — playing a pivotal role in shaping some of the most consequential laws in our Republic’s history, most notably the passage of the 2010 Constitution during his tenure as Kenya’s Prime Minister. It is, therefore, most fitting that he lies-in-state at the August House, granting the three arms of Government - Executive, Parliament and the Judiciary - and the nation a solemn moment to honour, with reverence and gratitude, the life and legacy of a true patriot and statesman.

A timeless inspiration that transcends generations. Baba, you shall forever live in our hearts.

Honored to have @BausTaka recognized in the Circularity Category 🎉🎉

Privileged to present the vision of the EAC Women Wastepreneurs Association & explore avenues for collaboration with H.E Christine Saru, Deputy Governor Taita Taveta County Looking forward to empowering women, fostering innovation, and driving inclusive economic growth.
