The Project
The REFOOTURE II Project is an IKEA funded project being implemented by Egerton University in Kenya alongside other universities in Ethiopia, Uganda and Netherlands. The project is designed to contribute to food systems transformation by fostering Regenerative, Inclusive Food Systems (RIFS). RIFS is being implemented to improve livelihoods through four outcomes: Food and nutrition security, Resilient livelihoods, Ecosystem health, Social equity and caring community.
The project is promoting RIFS practices and innovations that align with five principles: i). Sense of place and purpose; ii). Socio-ecological design for innovation; iii). Building connections; iv). Fair, just and inclusive transitions; and v). Design for renewal (it’s a living process). The project has developed a unique open and structured approach, Collaborate to Regenerate (C2R), to facilitate advancing RIFS
