About Inganta Afiya
We replace extraction with sovereignty by creating a verifiable record of community-held land, knowledge, and consent.
The problem we are solving
Community-held ethnobotanical knowledge and land have too often been documented, patented, and commercialised without meaningful consent or participation by the people who created and protected them.
Inganta Afiya creates a formal, traceable path where stewardship is visible, decisions are recorded, and communities retain control.
Our eight-gate consent ladder
No single entity can sell out the collective wisdom of a community. Each gate is sequential, reviewable, and recorded.
Our core principles
Communities retain ownership of local knowledge and land records.
Every action is visible, traceable, and accountable to the review process.
Local custodians remain central to decisions about access and benefit.
