all About us
Who Are We.
What Are We.
Anzania is a groundbreaking initiative unlike any other. We're transforming a 60-acre, lifeless and barren quarry near Nairobi into a vibrant Eco Park. The restoration project will not only serve as a learning space for young people but also become a powerful symbol of ecological restoration from a previously dilapidated environment as a result of human exploitation.
Anzania is not just a physical space; it is a platform for storytelling, shifting narratives, and changing prevailing stories. We firmly believe in the power of play and culture to inspire and engage.
