Delugees Environment Organization (DEO) is a community-rooted initiative in Kenya, dedicated to equipping the next generation with the knowledge, skills, and action needed to fight climate change.
Our journey began in 2022, when our Founder, Shem Mutulu, coined the word “Delugees” – derived from English word “DELUGE,” meaning floods – to describe people displaced or disadvantaged by extreme weather like floods or simply “climate refugees”.
This award-winning entry in AimHi Earth’s (Future Dictionary Competition – UK, 2022) became more than just a word. It became an inspiration and a movement.
To cultivate the next generation of climate leaders and resilient communities through climate education, tree planting, and technology for sustainability that restores dignity and amplifies lasting impact.
Delugees exists to nurture the next generation of climate leaders by combining climate education with hands-on tree planting in schools, especially in underserved communities.
We restore ecosystems, empower pupils and local communities, and use sustainable technologies to measure and scale impact, turning climate anxiety into action, dignity, resilience, and lasting change.
Our Founder, Shem Mutulu, was recognized as a Top 10 Finalist for the QS Impact Awards 2025 “Plant For Tomorrow Category”.
Delugees is legally registered in Kenya as a not-for-profit organization. Our commitment to transparency and accountability means we comply with national environmental and NGO regulations, and publish annual impact reports for our supporters.
