Our Story

Act! Empowering
Change Since 1998

Founded in 1998 and registered in 2001 as Pact Kenya, and later rebranded as Act Change Transform (Act!) in 2011, Act! has made remarkable strides in the development sector in Kenya and in the neighbouring countries.

This evidenced by its history of 2001 to 2006, when Act! was a key player in supporting civil society engagement in the Sudan Comprehensive Peace Agreement process that culminated in the independence vote and eventual separation of South Sudan from Sudan in 2010.

Almost 22 years on, Act! is one of the leading Kenyan, non-profit, non-governmental organization. Presently, Act! has solid institutional, financial and governance systems that meet international standards as demonstrated in various management and financial audits.
