This afternoon at the PACJA Secretariat, alongside representatives from The Green Belt Movement, I spoke out against the proposed excision of over 80 acres from Nairobi National Park and the Nairobi Animal Orphanage for government infrastructure and public utilities.

The growing trend of allocating protected ecosystems for development projects, from Nairobi National Park to the proposed excisions in Imenti Forest, poses a serious threat to Kenya’s environmental future. We must strengthen, not weaken, the safeguards that protect our forests and protected areas.

I also urge Parliament to exercise greater diligence in reviewing laws and policies that have far-reaching implications for environmental conservation, ensuring robust public participation and long-term sustainability.

Looking back at the Berlin Climate Talks in 2025, climate justice remains a core principle of the UNFCCC. Equity and fairness must continue to guide global climate action.

A moment from the archives.

In October 2017, I had the privilege of contributing to discussions on Climate Governance in Africa at the International University of Rabat, alongside researchers, policymakers, and development partners.

A reminder of an important step we took in 2023 through a partnership between PACJA and Meru University of Science & Technology to advance climate resilience in Kenya’s ASAL regions.

The collaboration focused on research-driven solutions to address drought and food insecurity affecting communities in Meru, Isiolo, and Marsabit.
