Day 2 (Site Visit, Capacity building and partners' meetings)
After the capacity-building session, we proceeded with the day's agenda, which included site visits. We visited the Motoine River at the confluence of the dam, one of the dam's key tributaries. This visit provided valuable insights and reaffirmed our commitment to our environmental goals. Overall, it was another successful and productive day for the team.
We finished the day with an online meeting with the Rotary Club - Nairobi Connect team headed by the President Lilian Momanyi. A very productive session it was. How encouraging to see individuals and institutions joining the journey to restore the dam and revitalizing it's tributaries.
