Important Update: We are Happy to announce that The Seed and Knowledge Initiative (SKI) is now officially registered as a Non-Profit Company (NPC) in South Africa!
This significant milestone is because of the collective effort and commitment of all our partners over the years.
This NPC is not just a legal entity, it belongs to all of us and is a shared platform to continue advancing our vision of advancing practice, science and social movement in Agroecology and Farmer Led Seed Systems for Food Sovereignty in Southern Africa.
The Seed and Knowledge Initiative (SKI) is a dynamic partnership of diverse southern African organisations committed to securing food sovereignty in the region. We work with smallholder farmers to become more seed, food and nutritionally secure through farmer-led seed systems, improved crop diversity, and the revival of local knowledge systems.
Our Theory of Change is based on our understanding of how enduring social transformation happens through an intricate and cyclical process of individual, community, and social change. It is also a response to our context, which requires a long term and fundamental paradigm shift.
Thank you to everyone who applied for SKI’s Project Implementation Manager – Markets, Enterprises and Livelihoods position. We greatly appreciate your interest in working with SKI and the time and effort taken to submit your application.
The recruitment process has now concluded. Applicants who have not been contacted by SKI by 15 September 2026 should consider their application unsuccessful.
