About Us

We are the Lake Region Food Systems Network (LRFSN)

A registered not for profit organization working in the Lake Region Economic Block of Kenya. Our network is composed of civil society organizations drawn from the 14 counties of the LREB Region that covers Vihiga, Nandi, Siaya, Kakamega, Kisumu, Busia, Bungoma, Trans Nzoia, Homabay, Kisii, Migori, Nyamira, Kericho, and Bomet counties. The Network aims at transforming the lake region’s food systems to ensure sufficient nutritious food for all without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their food and nutritional needs and putting smallholder farmers and other rural people at the center of food systems policy discourse.
