Challenge

Many in universities and school going children in our community do not know what climate change is, its effects and how it can be prevented, climate change as a topic is new to many in our community, many lack knowledge and information on climate change yet the effects are all around us, our climate requires justice.

Solution

Our project will use the arts to breakdown and bring home the topic of climate change to both learners in universities and school going children in our community especially in Nairobi County. They will be able to take climate action by understanding conservation ,climate change , its effects, how we can prevent it / mitigate its effects in our communities and take responsibility of our environment as well as work for a more just climate and conservation at the heart of decision making.

Long-Term Impact

The project will educate 20 universities 100 schools with 1000 children per school using the creative arts, they will learn community conservation We will also educate at least 5000 adults by use of community theater on climate change its effects , prevention and impact and how to mitigate its effects , this will improve the lives of many in the Nairobi county and recruit them to work for a more just climate and conservation for generations to come.
