It's time for climate action! 🌱 We launched a tree-growing program in Merti with Kenya Forest Service, linking culture and climate action. A 75-year-old elder shared how the environment has changed, inspiring ideas for Northern Kenya. Let's do this 💪💯

We had a productive session on beekeeping, agroecology, and gender roles in agriculture, highlighting women's impact on productivity. WE, the youth, created a plan for county and NGO engagement to combat food insecurity and create jobs. @GovGuyo @Isiolo_YIC @RPPL006

The power of the youth in climate action is unparalleled. Their passion, determination, and vision for a sustainable future are the driving forces that will shape our planet. Let their voices be heard, and their actions inspire a global movement towards environmental stewardship
Empowering the youth for climate action is crucial. It's time for governments and major organizations to join hands with grassroots efforts. Actions, not words, will drive the change we need. Together, let's build a sustainable future #YEAcaravan #Collaboration4Change @charlruto

Lets grow trees during the #YEAcaravan. Let the 🌎 hear us. WE,pastrolists from Northern Kenya are tired of experiencing harsh weather conditions due to climate change. Its time to act.Act now! @WilliamsRuto @UNEP @ActionAid_Kenya @WorldVisionEARO @WWF_Kenya @AfricaClimComms
We find joy in planting 🌳 but what really matters?Is it planting the trees or growing the trees?One can plant a tree and never go back to check on it while another person plants and goes back to check if its growing.Between these two who has done a good job?#growtrees

"How many people are sure they are still fertile?" Dr. @MaingiDan asked the youths this.There's toxic use of pesticides in today's world leading to health issues in 🇰🇪 and Africa at large.Lets promote agroecology and listen to the voice of the farmer💯 @BIBA_Kenya

There are various principles of seeds and food sovereignty like control over food production, access to ownership of land and resources, and local and traditional knowledge, among others.The government should figure out ways to support the peasant farmers and protect their rights

Community engagement is important before doing a project @RiptoyaElema highlighted that there's power in indigenous knowledge when we are collecting data and Indigenous knowledge from African elders is a rich and diverse source of wisdom and insight that can benefit the education
Citizen engagement is essential for a project to develop.This also discourages vandalisation.Funding was highlighted as a major issue that faced by youth led organisations,I would like to encourage everyone to support young minds as they give solutions to today's challenges.
