About Organisation

Digital Green is a global development organization that is creating  a world where farmers  use technology  and data  to build prosperous  communities. We join forces with governments, private agencies and, most importantly, rural communities themselves to co-create digital solutions that are of the community and for the community.

When farmers have the tools they need to connect with one another, they’re far more likely to apply what they’ve learned on their farms and in their households–improving their own livelihoods and those of others in their community, in a manner that’s gender-sensitive and climate-resilient.

So far, Digital Green has reached ~4 million rural community members across over 8,000 villages across multiple countries, primarily India, Ethiopia, Kenya. Digital Green operates from offices in San Francisco, New Delhi, and Addis Ababa. Digital Green is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in the US.
