This water enterprise is not only transforming lives in Somalia, it’s transforming how sustainable development happens.

Adeso is a pioneering African social enterprise with a global influence. 

Adeso is a pioneering African social enterprise with global influence. Rooted in Africa for over 30 years, we are working toward a decolonised world where people thrive through their own resourcefulness and tenacity. Adeso is part of global movement to shift power to local leaders who are closest to the problem and, by consequence, closest to the solution. We are working with allies all over the world to reimagine and build a better system that is based on the principles of solidarity, humility, self-determination, and equality.  We are committed to this work. Committed to proving it is possible. Ready to partner, ready to overcome barriers, and ready to evolve to create a blueprint for change.

We develop practical solutions for donors and doers alike that help break down the barriers toward locally-led development in order to unlock opportunities that create lasting change.

To do this, we work in two primary arenas:

- **At the global stage,** where we use our powerful advocacy platforms to call out and improve the systems that perpetuate the power and wealth gaps between the Global North and Global South. 

- **In Somalia,** where we use our deep community connections and long track record of success to implement game changing projects that pass our high standards of authentic community involvement.
