Empowering Farmers, Transforming Agriculture.
Helping farmers along L.Victoria basin to do better using copenicus data
We are the ugandan partners in the consortium
Agape Innovations Limited is proud to be a partner in KijaniSpace, a cutting-edge climate-smart agriculture and aquaculture innovation initiative transforming farming systems in East Africa. KijaniSpace—meaning “Green Space” in Swahili—is a collaborative project funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme and coordinated by INNOTEC21 GmbH, involving 13 partners from Europe and Africa, including Agape Innovations.

What is KijaniSpace?
KijaniSpace integrates Copernicus Earth Observation (EO) satellite data with Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to empower smallholder farmers, ag-tech innovators, researchers, and communities with real-time, actionable insights that improve climate resilience and productivity for both crop and fish farming. Kijani Space
At the heart of the project is the KijaniBox—a Space-IoT solution platform that simplifies access to satellite data combined with locally gathered sensor information. This empowers users with precise environmental and agricultural insights tailored for regional needs.
Empower climate-smart practices: Equip farmers and fishers with data-driven tools that enhance decision-making, such as predicting irrigation needs and monitoring water quality. Kijani Space
Strengthen regional innovation: Build local capacity through training and talent development, including programs for young researchers, engineers, and SMEs.
A Space-IoT Talent Program that trains innovators to create minimum viable products (MVPs) using satellite and IoT data.
A Space-IoT Innovation Program that helps small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) adopt and develop tech-enabled climate solutions.
Pilot demonstrations in both crop and fish farming, showcasing practical applications of the KijaniBox platform.
As a consortium partner, Agape Innovations Limited contributes to the design and deployment of locally relevant agricultural technologies that draw on EO and IoT data to tackle climate-related challenges faced by farmers in Uganda and the Lake Victoria Basin
