Our cutting-edge #RootsForResilience program is a community-led initiative in the vulnerable Elgeyo Marakwet escarpment, tackling the urgent challenges of #LandDegradation and increasing #landslide risks. By empowering local groups to cultivate value-based tree nurseries and adopt sustainable practices, the program aims to both heal the fragile ecosystem and foster long-term economic stability. Through initiatives like value-based seed production and conservation advocacy, #RootsForResilience is building a foundation for a safer, greener, and more prosperous future, driven by the strength and determination of the community itself.

Today, visited the CFA’s tree nursery, where we were inspired by the incredible work being led by women and youth in nurturing new life for the forest. Their dedication is a powerful reminder that restoration is both a community effort and a generational responsibility.

This video captures the beginning of that process, where local voices are leading the conversation on resilience, land use, and the future of our communities.
When communities lead, solutions last.

Our discussion took us back to the November 5th landslide that took lives and buried homes. We counted the losses. But there is something we didn’t count. The women who lost their food stores.

The girls whose education was disrupted. The mothers carrying the burden of rebuilding families. Climate disasters are not gender neutral. As we mark #IWD2026, we must ensure women are not just victims of climate change, but leaders in climate solutions.

We believe Nature speaks. And when Nature speaks, we grow.
But between Nature speaking and us growing, there must be intentional action.
That is what the Forest Whisperers Movement is about.

We will have Guided Nature Walks, Immersive Forest Bathing experiences, Intergenerational conversations and tree growing.
This is not just about conservation.
It is about connection. It is about cultivating a culture were environmental care flows from relationship, not obligation
