KKCF Social Enterprise Window (SEW) targets social enterprises currently present in Kakuma and those willing to set up businesses in Kakuma and Kalobeyei areas.
Social enterprises can ease pressure on the overstretched humanitarian system and compliment people’s willingness to pay for education, for example, by engaging Kenyan and regional low-cost private school providers. We will also target enterprise models which increase access to water and sanitation and quality medical and reproductive health solutions for refugees and host communities. We will address gender gaps by supporting social enterprises that can set up local manufacturing and distribution of sanitary towels and help increase their access and use particularly for teenage girls.

Private Sector Window (PSW) targets companies currently present in Kakuma and those willing to set up businesses in Kakuma and Kalobeyei areas.
The Private Sector Window will support established companies in implementing commercially viable and sustainable businesses that have the potential to raise incomes, provide goods and services, create jobs and/or improve living standards in both the camp and host community. Private sector companies will compete for performance-based grants, which will also require co-financing from the companies. Technical assistance may also be provided to the successful bidders. The Private Sector Window will include a gender component, prioritising business models that address gender-related constraints by supporting women’s economic advancement through the creation of new entrepreneurial and job opportunities, as well as improving their living standards.
