Nairobi Dam Restoration Talks
On a September morning in Nairobi, our environmental team sat with Power Engineers and Ecologists Without Borders (EcoWB) and mapped the first phase of the Nairobi Dam conservation work — not as a slide deck in a hotel, but as a working conversation about water, waste, and what it costs a neighbourhood when a dam sickens.
From Kibera, you feel the city’s weather in your bones: dust after dry weeks, mud when the rains come, smoke on cold evenings. A healthier dam is not a poster — it is fewer stomach bugs, fewer days parents lose to illness, fewer children missing school because the lane flooded or the water turned.
The talks came a week before the UN Climate Change Summit met in Nairobi — a timely reminder that the headlines are made of local decisions, shovels, budgets, and follow-through.
A line worth carrying
President William Ruto said it plainly: climate action is not a Global North issue or a Global South issue — it is our collective challenge, and it touches all of us. We are not asking for pity; we are building partnerships that can hold.
If you work in water, ecology, or engineering and want to walk the next site visit with us — or fund a community briefing in Kisumu Ndogo — write through etco-kenya.org and ask for the environment desk.

Happy Father's Day
As a man. It's Okay to start all over again. Let someone love you correctly, genuinely, value you and respectfully if they have to. Somewhere in your 30s, 40s or 50s, you'll get the opportunity to rebuild your life after a negative loop. It's important you see that journey through. Keep going and don't ever give up. Strong.
