It began with a simple question: how can we make Gombe breathe again? We watched our city grow hotter and dirtier, and decided to act. Through Start The Future Initiative, we launched Eco Green Gombe — a youth-led movement bringing life back to our communities. From cleaning neglected streets to planting trees at a special needs school and simplifying climate talks for local advocates, we turned concern into action, and action into hope.
Accelerating Kenya's 10% Forest Cover by 2022
My story is about putting the people/community first in environmental conservation and management. The community needs to be provided with the requisite knowledge and tools to enhance tree seedlings production. This will make it possible for the country [Kenya] to attain its 10% forest cover by 2022. There are various initiatives we put in place to help us achieve the target.
