Nairobi Dam Conservation Project Discussions
A healthier Nairobi Dam could give back what it once promised — breeze, birds, children not holding their noses at the shoreline. ETCO is in conversation with NMS officers in charge of environment and with the Ecologists Without Borders team, asking plain questions: how can tributaries serve communities, and how do we keep the dam useful instead of harmful?
We are engaging stakeholders locally and internationally because this is not a Kibera-only puzzle — it is Nairobi’s water story wearing muddy shoes. We will work with any team willing and able; we do not have another Earth to trial mistakes on.
If you have technical skills, funding, or hours for clean-up days, reach out — partnership here is not theatre; it is engineering with conscience.

From Participation to Agency: ETCO at the SAIIA Youth Programming Innovation Lab
Last week, ETCO represented Kibra at the SAIIA Youth Programming Innovation Lab in Nairobi — where the real question wasn't youth participation, but youth agency. Here's what that means for our nine programmes, and an honest look at what it takes to build sustainably as a volunteer-run organisation.
