Kyaninga Mobility (KM) commits to transforming the production of assistive devices in East Africa using locally sourced materials and innovative, appropriate technology.
As part of their Commitment, KM is transitioning from handcrafted to mechanical batch production of wheelchairs, walking and standing frames, crutches and balance bikes, giving thousands of children and adults with disabilities independence and dignity.
At KM, we are dedicated to a meticulous process of designing and building unique tools and equipment that are tailored to the unique East African setting. Our focus on innovation, affordability, sustainability, and local adaptability ensures that our products are not only high-quality but also reliable and long-lasting, enabling scalable production and lasting impact across the region.
Through KM’s bamboo out-grower program, bamboo plantations will supply the raw material that constitutes 90% of KM’s products. By engaging the families of children with disabilities as the primary source of bamboo, KM secures a sustainable supply chain and provides these families with a livelihood. This empowerment enables families to afford essentials like food and education for their children, creating a cycle of support and opportunity within the community.
