The Paradigm Project Jobs in Kenya - Administrative Assistant and Business Development Executives

The Paradigm Project is a low-profit limited liability company (L3C) whose mission is to create sustainable economic, social and environmental value within developing world communities.

In Kenya, we are working with partner organizations to deploy energy-saving firewood cook stoves in all parts of the country. Efficient stoves preserve the environment, reduce poverty, increase quality of life for the poor and save lives.

Because of their environmental benefits, efficient cook stoves can also generate carbon offsets which can be sold to create a stream of revenue that can be used to fund other community benefit projects.
