co Moyo recently
bought a 5 hectares
site half an hour drive
from Kilifi town centre.
The site has a house,
and Eco Moyo have
built the infrastructure
necessary to make it
usable as an education
centre.
During 2017 they built living
accommodation for 20 pupils and
the teaching staff so that they can
move operations to the new site.
The development plan for Eco
Moyo Education Centre consists
of two parts: The first is Eco Moyo
Primary School which is modelled
on Green School Principals and
the Montessori Education Method,
emphasis is on practical approaches
to each subject together with ethics,
ecology, training in individual
thinking and communication
skills. The second part is Eco
Moyo Farm which will be based
on Permaculture Principals for
the cultivation of food crops,
timber and animal husbandry. The
goal is to meet the consumption
needs of students and staff, while
functioning as a demonstration
site for locals and visitors. Eco
Moyo have asked The Scarcity and
Creativity Studio, AHO to design
and build two classrooms on their
new site.
