EAHS Nairobi – the ONLY annual events of their kind, in Africa for Africa, for BUYERS and SUPPLIERS of Humanitarian and Development Aid
Bringing together the latest news and features with an effective events program, we strive to help children, families, and communities throughout Africa, as the continent progresses towards economic, social and environmental sustainability.
As Africa’s longest established and premier humanitarian conference provider, we organize and host a series of existing programs incorporating International Governments and the Aid & Development Community throughout the region. All “programs” are built on the simple principle of attracting the global business and financial community to invest and partner with the concerned authority. The success of these programs is based on experience and performance:
- Personal contact with business leaders, investors and the chief executives of the world’s leading multinationals
- High-level political relations with ministers, UN Officials and government agencies, development banks, national and international NGOs, civil societies, research institutes officials across the Middle East and Africa
- Considerable experience in organizing regular humanitarian, meetings-based summits around the world

Our Events model was created to provide business exhibitions that transcend the boundaries of the traditional conference model, focusing on personal interaction and forging business ties within emerging markets for the development of core infrastructure and the promotion of trade and investment
Our Humanitarian conferences serve as a platform for personal interaction and cross-sector engagement and collaboration between senior representatives from UN and government agencies, development banks, National and International NGOs, civil societies, research institutes, the private sector and media.
Utilizing a unique format that combines informed content with the opportunity for private consultation with senior decision-makers, the company has forged close ties with international governments, leading public bodies, multilateral institutions, non-governmental organizations and the global business community to provide a wide range of partnership, procurement and business opportunities for companies keen to work at the highest level.
As pioneers of the matchmaking format, EAHS has developed a unique Procurement / Partnership Zone designed to offer you private face-to-face matchmaking meetings with Heads of Procurement and Partnership Specialists From Leading UN Agencies, NGOs And INGOs in attendance to source goods & services and learn more about your innovations.
“Procurement is simply a reality of nearly every UN activity: every global goal, every mission, every operation. Without the provision of goods and services, attempts to address the world’s problems would be impossible”
Grete Faremo – Under-Secretary-General and UNOPS Executive Director
Our conferences provide the ideal platform for UN Agencies, Local, Regional & International NGOs, Government heads, International Development Banks, Academia, and International Associations, the public and private sectors to meet, share insights & experiences, formulate strategy, facilitate development, drive innovation, augment investment and promote private sector participation in the context of aid effectiveness with a view to achieving lasting and sustainable development.
