We are community-driven local organization formed by members from Lokichoggio, Oropoi and Kakuma divisions in 2003. The major driving factor was to contribute to addressing the cross border violent conflict experienced among the Turkana pastoralist and their neighbours from Uganda and South Sudan. The organization operated as a CBO until 2007 when it was registered as an NGO with the same name Lokichoggio, Oropoi and Kakuma Development Organization. During this period, the organization had extended her activities to the entire county thus the need to re-brand to remain relevant in the county. Until May 2015, re-branded to LOKADO

As part of our efforts to protect and preserve the environment, we actively promote the use of eco-friendly charcoal briquettes. Through targeted training sessions, we empower communities with the knowledge and skills to produce and utilize these sustainable alternatives to traditional charcoal.
Charcoal briquettes are not only cost-effective but also reduce deforestation by minimizing reliance on wood fuel. By adopting this innovative solution, communities can meet their energy needs while contributing to environmental conservation and combating climate change. This initiative aligns with our commitment to creating sustainable livelihoods and fostering resilience within local populations.
