ABOUT ASDEF

Who We Are

The African Social Development Focus (ASDEF) is a humanitarian and social development non profit making organization that empowers ASALs communities through sustainable community-driven development. ASDEF was founded in 2013 registered under NGO coordination board by local scholars and development practitioners who were concerned about the huge widening humanitarian needs and development gap in its target region.

The organization’s ‘theory of change’ is anchored on working with our target communities to identify challenges, design interventions and mobilize resources to address them. We strive to pursue long-term and sustainable development in collaboration with the beneficiary communities, government, development actors and other stakeholders. In our work, we remain non-political and non-profit making organization. We respect strict political and religious impartiality and operates according to principles of non-discrimination and transparency. We also fully observe the Core Humanitarian Standards (CHS). ASDEF has its operational offices in Wajir, Mandera and Tana River.
