Where we work

We've been working to provide refugees, marginalised communities and those affected by conflict with quality education and training for over forty years.

Windle International (WI) consists of interdependent charitable organisations – our members - based in and operating across Eastern Africa and the UK, with support offices in Europe, the US, and Canada.

Starting from humble beginnings in 1977 with the establishment of Windle International Kenya in Nairobi by founder Dr Hugh Austin Windle Pilkington, we now operate in Kenya, Uganda, Sudan, South Sudan, Somalia, the UK, the EU, the US, and Canada.
