Margaret Wanjiku, is based in Nairobi, Kenya. Her motivation comes from personal experiences growing up and later working with farmers, which inspired her passion for empowering smallholder farmers, protecting biodiversity, and creating economic opportunities for women and youth. As Founder and CEO of Pollen Patrollers, Margaret leads an innovative agri-tech initiative using smart hive technology and precision pollination to combat bee colony collapse. The project supports farmers with affordable pollination services, boosts yields, and promotes climate-resilient practices, directly impacting livelihoods and environmental sustainability across Kenya.

Margaret will be represented by her colleague Ednah Kihungi at Congress.

Ednah leads partnerships and engagements at Pollen Patrollers. Her work, alongside Margaret, helps combat bee colony collapse, boost crop yields, and promote climate-resilient farming practices. Ednah is passionate about sustainability, women empowerment, and building strong networks that create long-term impact for communities and the environment.
