about us

Our Core Values

  • The environment and natural life in Africa must be protected and deployed only for the benefit of local communities and nature itself.
  • Every person has the right to safe drinking water, to sufficient food and to a perspective for the future.
  • Our solutions require entrepreneurial spirit and cooperation. 
  • The African identity and culture is always essential to our solutions.

Our Vision

Our dream is a sustainable, strong, healthy and innovative Africa with its own identity, focusing on the needs of the people and the needs of the environment.

Our Mission

Our mission is to set up large-scale sustainable projects, implemented and led by Africans. We support with training, technology and our network. Well-being, a healthy environment, employment and value will be created in Africa by fully committing to sustainable entrepreneurship, cooperation and taking more control over African value chains.

Our focus

We focus on sustainable entrepreneurship in vital sectors: drinking water, sanitation, food supply, energy, waste management, housing and clothing.

At UMHA we support one another, whether it is from the Netherlands or from somewhere in Africa. Local communities and project partners can always rely on us to support them with professional advise, training and technology for their community to flourish and become the more self-sufficient and confident people they are.
