TakaTaka Solutions: Composting and Waste Management in Nairobi Kenya

Inside the project

The registry description says the project includes composting, waste collection and recycling activities in Nairobi, that the compost is sold to Kenyan farmers and that the recycled waste is sold to the recycling industry.

It states that emissions are reduced mainly through composting, which avoids the anaerobic decay of biomass, and names affordable waste collection services to all areas, better quality fertilisers for farmers and jobs for the local community as socio-economic benefits. The registry snapshot the hub holds (VROD v2026-08) lists GS3121 with the status Listed and the developer myclimate Foundation, and lists no credits issued.
