The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth—all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.

Kenya was admitted to United Nations membership on 16 December 1963, the same year the country attained independence. In 1996, the United Nations Office at Nairobi (UNON) was established, becoming one of four major UN office sites and the UN's headquarters in Africa. As a Kenyan national public benefit organization, Jenga’s programs and services have espoused this global mandate, and each program and service must meet a minimum of three of the 17 goals. Sustainability is at the center of the SDGs, as the term sustainable development implies. The goals can be found at https://sdgs.un.org/.

Public Benefit Organization

Jenga International Services Inc. owes its establishment to the Public Benefit Organizations (PBO) Act, which was enacted in Kenya in 2013 but only came into effect on May 14, 2024. This law, delayed for 11 years, provides a thorough, unified, predictable, and transparent framework for registering and regulating civil society entities within Kenya, Africa.
