1. ABOUT BOMA
BOMA is a non-profit organization founded in 2006, with a vision to end extreme poverty in Africa’s drylands. We are driven by our mission to provide the people and governments of Africa Drylands with adapted economic inclusion programs that significantly reduce extreme poverty rates and enhance their ability to withstand multiple crises. This is achieved through the BOMA context-adaptive Rural Entrepreneur Access Project (REAP) graduation model designed to economically empower women, youth and refugees by equipping them with the skills, resources and linkages necessary to achieve sustainable livelihoods.
To date, BOMA has transformed the lives of over 1 million women, youth and refugees, focusing on last-mile communities most vulnerable to climate change and systemic shocks. By leveraging a tech-enabled, data-driven and participant-centered approach, BOMA ensures measurable, scalable and lasting impact.
2. ABOUT THE PROGRAM
BOMA is currently seeking qualified candidates for acting Program Manager position for the Changing Lives Project in Kakuma/Kalobeyei.
The Changing Lives Project, funded by the World Food Program (WFP) and implemented by BOMA, leverages the Rural Entrepreneurship Access Project (REAP) for Refugees model to accelerate household transitions from aid dependency to self-reliance under Kenya’s Differentiated Assistance (DA) Framework. Targeting 2,000 participants from Category 3 refugee households in Kakuma and Kalobeyei, the project provides an integrated package of life skills training, business coaching, conditional growth grants and market linkage support to strengthen enterprise capacity, financial literacy and resilience. By aligning with the Kenya DA Transition Framework (2025) and national policy instruments such as the Refugee Act of Kenya (2021) and SHIRIKA Plan (2024), the project promotes localized economic inclusion and coordinated livelihoods programming through existing structures like the KISEDP and other TWG’s. Ultimately, the initiative seeks to enable at least 1,600 households to progress toward Category 4 (self-reliant) status. The program implementation is ongoing and approaching the close out phase.
