The National Governing Body for Robotics & STEM Education
Robotics Federation of Kenya
Uniting schools, organizations, and industry partners to build a robust STEM and robotics ecosystem that prepares every Kenyan learner for the future.
Who We Are
Shaping Kenya's future through robotics and STEM education.
The Robotics Federation of Kenya (RFK) serves as the central coordinating body for all robotics and STEM-related activities across the nation. We work with government agencies, educational institutions, and private sector partners to integrate robotics and STEM into Kenya's education system from primary through secondary school.
Our Mission
To advance robotics and STEM education across Kenya by coordinating national programs, supporting curriculum integration, fostering competitions, and building partnerships that ensure every learner has access to future-ready skills.
Our Vision
A Kenya where every young person, regardless of background or location, has the opportunity to develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and technical skills through hands-on robotics and STEM education.
Our Values
Inclusivity in access to STEM education. Excellence in program delivery. Collaboration across sectors. Innovation as a driver of national development. Integrity in governance and partnerships.
What We Do
The Federation's role in Kenya's STEM transformation.
As the national governing body, RFK plays a unique and critical role in ensuring robotics and STEM education is coordinated, standardized, and accessible nationwide.
