Our Story

Nurturing Change in a Complex World

Picture a world where governments change direction erratically as a compass gone wild, where technology ignites like bursts of fireworks, economies reshape as malleable as play-dough, and business concepts appear and vanish quicker than the blink of an eye.
Yet, within this complexity, a visionary thinker armed with over two decades of experience in civil society in Africa nurtured a grand concept. In his journey, Arsene Ngombe recognised the limitations of interventions targeted at events on the surface, which he describes as symptoms of the real problems. He aspired for new methods to tackle the deeply complex and interconnected problems that we encounter. He brought together a group of like-minded individuals and shared his vision, giving way to the birth of RIAHSAH Co.
RIAHSAH Co. is not just a company, it’s a social impact network built on the belief that collaboration and innovation are key ingredients for systemic change. We envisioned designing projects and strategies that would have long-lasting results. We wanted to support organisations and individuals that were making the world better to plan for the future, even when things seemed unpredictable.
As the world keeps evolving, RIAHSAH Co. remains strong. We understand that in a world where things happen quickly, having a good plan that lasts is like having a secret power to do good things.

A transformed social landscape across Africa, driven by collaborative innovation.

To inspire cross-sector partnerships, innovative solutions, and sustainable change that uplifts communities and fosters inclusive growth.

To enable sustainable prosperity, equitable opportunities, and harmonious coexistence in a complex world.
