IAS Kenya was registered in 1994 under NGO Act mainly as a support office for the projects in Sudan and Somalia. Over time, the Kenya programme has been involved in implementing community projects in partnership with local community groups in Central, Rift, Eastern and North-Eastern regions in Kenya. The first project implemented by the Kenya Programme was in 1996 funded by Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA) and the Government of Kenya/Ministry of Water to provide sustainable community water development in Trans-Nzoia district. The project was completed in 2000.

Since then, IAS Kenya has been involved in implementing inclusive education, water, peace building and emergency relief support projects in various parts of Kenya.
