Today, as many Kenyas commemorated #NationalTreePlantingDay by planting trees, in the spirit of the #ZeroHunger Initiative @aphrc, I stood in solidarity with those heavily impacted by the floods & resultant government actions of demolishing their houses as a safety measure.
I spent some time with @ViccoMukuru@ShakurNjeru1 in Mukuru Sinai slum- I shared food with them - @ViccoMukuru are running a community kitchen, feeding ~300 people two meals everyday during this crisis. They get support from well-wishers like you & me - Any support is so direly needed & appreciated.
We visited the demolition sites - It was calm, though I could feel the sadness in peoples hearts as they watched the bulldozer bring down the houses. #VICCO & other groups are promoting peace in the community by encouraging the youth & others in the community to be calm & accept the situation without violence.
My heart is always so warmed by their work & that of the many other grassroots organizations that @Zero_Hunger_Ke at APHRC works with. They are literally the life of their communities. They do what even the mighty government would find hard to do. They penetrate their communities, they sustain their communities, they create resilience in their communities in such a time as this!
If I were the government, I would allocate funding to these groups as part of social security. Still wondering how I could be of help in helping such great groups access the @UNFCCC #Loss & #Damage #LossDamage Fund to support their communities deal with & adapt to #ClimateChange impacts. Thatโs in my radar to explore.
Their urban farm was unfortunately affected by the floods - but it was spared from demolition. The government representatives in the community respect it.๐

@sohcahtan The stories Iโve heard from my bros who just recently finished school are sickening. The trauma they are causing is appalling, and the trauma from so called prefects!!!!
The Food System Lab #Nairobi aims to promote small-scale #farming by supporting women and youth in Korogocho and Viwandani slums. In fall 2021 a one-week training introduced bokashi and other #urbangardening methods to selected groups. #H2020#foodsystems

My daughter has stopped taking Brookside flavored milk!!! I can finally afford a prime piece of land because those things were drunk like water and the cost an arm and a leg, heck! Include the head and hooves as well!!! What do people do with so much money!
Food loss & waste isnโt just about perfectly good food not making it to our tables, or the money we waste when it gets thrown out instead of eaten.
The real cost of food goes far beyond what we pay for it.
Stop food loss & waste. For the people. For the planet!
@kamz26 My daughter wanted to sleep in my bed, I told her Iโd pick her when I am going to bed. I didnโt. In the morning I told her she looked so peaceful I didnโt want to wake her upโฆ works only once though, coz the next time she told me wake me up even if I look peaceful
Itโs now out! The eagerly awaited film on our 2050 Food System Vision for Nairobi is out! Thanks to #MediaRed@RockefellerFdn
