SEED is a pioneering initiative that combines social impact with economic sustainability to regenerate rural communities in East Africa. Conceived by Vittori Creative Studio and led by the Warka Water Zanzibar Foundation.

SEED integrates eight key areas:

• Vocational training
• Education
• Sustainable construction
• Cultural heritage preservation 
• Craftsmanship 
• Blue Economy
• Ecosystem conservation
• Sustainable tourism

It primarily operates in Pemba (Zanzibar) and extends across coastal regions of Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, and Mozambique.

SEED aims to:

• Promote inclusive and sustainable development rooted in local culture and environment.

• Empower rural communities through skill-building, infrastructure, and livelihood creation.

• Preserve natural ecosystems and cultural heritage while enabling economic growth.

• Serve as a scalable public-private partnership model that generates measurable impact in underserved regions.

Over the years, the foundation has achieved significant milestones, laying the groundwork for transformative change across rural communities. The successful deployment of Warka Water Towers—ingenious structures that harvest clean water from the atmosphere—stands as a testament to the foundation’s commitment to innovation, sustainability, and local empowerment. These achievements have not only provided life-changing access to safe water but have also built trust and momentum within the communities. Today, with the SEED Initiative, the foundation builds on this legacy, expanding its impact through integrated programs in education, vocational training, eco-construction, and sustainable livelihoods—paving the way for long-term resilience and inclusive development.

Born as a public-private partnership with the Government of Zanzibar, SEED is now opening its doors to investors and donors, offering concrete opportunities to those who wish to contribute to sustainable development and generate real impact in the region. It is an invitation to participate in the birth of a new civilization, where tradition and innovation coexist in harmony with the planet.
