Our work is guided by a commitment to practical solutions that deliver meaningful and lasting impact.
About Us
Circular Insights is a technical advisory and capacity-building partner supporting the design, delivery, and long-term sustainability of water, renewable energy, and climate initiatives across underserved communities in Kenya and the wider African region.
We work with governments, development partners, organizations, and communities to move projects from concept to implementation and sustained impact.
Our Purpose
We exist to bridge the gap between sustainability ambition and real-world implementation. Many initiatives struggle to move from strategy to sustained impact. We work alongside partners to strengthen systems, build capacity, and support the delivery of resilient solutions.
Our Mission
To support partners in designing and implementing practical, locally grounded solutions for sustainable water, energy, and climate systems.
Our Vision
A future where resilient, climate-smart water and energy systems enable thriving communities across Africa.
Our Focus Areas
Our work is guided by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, specifically SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), and SDG 13 (Climate Action), three interconnected areas central to sustainable development.
Across these focus areas, we apply data-driven analysis and explore digital and AI-enabled tools to support informed planning, implementation, and monitoring.
Supporting reliable, efficient, and sustainable water systems.
Advancing renewable energy solutions and energy efficiency.
Strengthening resilience and adaptive capacity in the face of climate risks.
How we work
Evidence-led
We ground our work in data, ethnographic and participatory research, and technical analysis to deliver solutions that are robust, transparent, and measurable.
Participatory by design
We engage stakeholders throughout the process, because locally informed solutions are more likely to be adopted, maintained, and sustained.
Locally applied
We adapt global sustainability frameworks to local contexts, institutional realities, and community needs.
