Windle International

This page is for Windle International, the umbrella body representing Windle members in East Africa, the Horn of Africa, and the UK. Windle International are a leading provider of education and training for refugees and communities affected by conflict in east Africa and the Horn of Africa. Every year, we help over a million people to access education, from nursery level to postgraduate scholarships and teacher training, so that they can contribute to creating peaceful, tolerant, and socially just societies. Windle International is an international NGO, made up of independent charitable organisations based across east Africa, the Horn of Africa, and the UK. Starting in 1977 with the establishment of Windle International Kenya in Nairobi by founder Dr Hugh Austin Windle Pilkington, we now have offices in Kenya, Uganda, Sudan, South Sudan, Somalia, and the UK. We employ over 3,000 local staff across our offices and programmes - with a significant proportion being refugees or former refugees.
