What the programme does
Waste and clean-ups
Community clean-ups, partnership with Nairobi City County workers and waste-stream documentation. This connects to Green the Red and menstrual product disposal.
Climate learning
Climate change awareness modules in the AYP curriculum and Youth Capacity Building. Murals bring climate education into public spaces.
Upcycling and consumption
Creative reuse and behavioural change around consumption and production, built with grassroots youth groups in Kayole, Korogocho and beyond.
The pillar works towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 12 and 13: responsible consumption and production, and climate action.
Green the Red
Deliberation to Action for Sustainable Menstrual Practices runs across Health and Environment. The programme runs from 2025 to 2026, funded by the European Union and the Big 6 through Global Youth Mobilization (GYM).
Our first cross-pillar programme links the dispenser model to the disposal stream through sustainable product use, waste management, access and affordability, and behavioural change.
Climate action in the community
Mazingira Day Mtaani
A community environment day: clean-ups, tree planting and climate murals with grassroots youth groups across Nairobi.
Seeds of Change
Climate education for children and young people through art-based expression and pledge-making. In Korogocho, young artists made murals about plastic pollution, ocean protection, fossil fuels and climate hope.
