ETCO THEATRE
People express their feelings in many different ways, so do actors and actresses. They use their talent and skills to educate, entertain or pass relevant messages to a target group. It may be a good inspiration to others. We hope to nurture many young talents and skills in the field of Theatre Arts and Film Production.
Aim at taking art to a higher level in the informal settlement communities, our survey has shown that relatively 98% of the Theatre Arts and Film Performance spaces are only available in the country's capital and universities but not in the informal settlement areas.
This has made it difficult for a lot of talented people both young and old to reach their full potential in the field.
We started with street acting/street shows and ended up attracting many people who showed interest in the acting industry. We
currently hire a space for rehearsals and live show activities as we hopefully work towards acquiring an enough space to build our own Theatre Hall where not only will greatly inspire generations but also change lives and create a sustainable livelihood.
New ETCO Office Furnishing in Kibera (Nyayo Highrise)
At the former Kibera Blessed Academy, ETCO has officially established its office space and is currently in the process of furnishing it to better serve the community of Kibra and Lang'ata efficiently. This marks a significant step in strengthening our operations and expanding our impact. We are sincerely grateful to all our donors, sponsors, and partners who continue to believe in our vision and are making this dream a reality. Your support is building more than just an office — it is building hope and opportunity for the community we serve.
Site Inspection for Tree Nursery at Nairobi Dam Park
Yesterday, ETCO, the Lang’ata Local Water Forum (LLWF), and the Highrise Youth Generation Group hosted Mr. James, a Kenya Forest Service Officer for Lang’ata Constituency (accompanied by Mr. Ken, KFS Officer Kamukunji), for a site visit to inspect our tree nursery. The initiative will begin with site preparation, training the Climate Worx team (cohorts), and the planting of at least 10,000 seedlings to support the long-term maintenance of Nairobi Dam Park.
Happy New Year 2026
As we gear up for a year filled with river-related activities, we wish you a prosperous and highly successful year in all your endeavours. We are confident that even more initiatives lie ahead for the Ngong River Regeneration in 2026. Let us continue sensitising our community members and ready ourselves to contribute—through partnerships, clean-up activities, and all other efforts—towards restoring and revitalising our rivers.
