Dear world 🌎
For over 2 years now, we've (@kean_Intl ) successfully run the Afrika Youth Caravan to Climate Conferences (COPs)
Our mobilisation has been to build capacity, support & bring youth leaders doing impact on-the-ground works to share their solutions with the world. 🧵

#LabourDay2025 #WasteWorkers #ZeroWaste #JustTransition

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

On this Labor Day, let's recognize the unsung heroes who support our food system: the waste pickers.

At #OrganicRebirth, these amazing individuals and our local farmers come together to transform 60 tonnes of market waste into rich compost, fueling community empowerment.

✅ Record Keeping — tracking waste received, compost output, and sales data

Because sustainable waste management isn't just about infrastructure, it's about empowering the people who make it work every day.

#OrganicRebirth

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

Composting hubs are up and running; now it's time to build the people behind them.

The #OrganicRebirth project is investing in the technical growth of waste workers, equipping them with hands-on skills to run composting operations with confidence and precision.

#ZeroWaste

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

Recent training covered:

✅ Troubleshooting — addressing common challenges like excess moisture, dryness, odour issues, and slow decomposition
✅ Quality Assurance — moisture monitoring, turning schedules, and proper curing practices

Huge thanks to @UMIFund and @TheSocialChangeNest for supporting #OrganicRebirth! We call for stronger policies and structures to increase women's engagement in organic waste management. This is an opportunity we MUST harness!

Happy #InternationalWomensDay2026! Today, our spotlight shines on the incredible women in Kenya's waste management sector. Often overlooked, their contributions are vital for a sustainable future. #WomenInWasteManagement #IWD2026

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

Through the #OrganicRebirth project, we've witnessed women's transformative power, turning organic waste into nutrient-rich fertilizer. This not only cleans our environment but also provides dignified livelihoods. Their work deserves recognition! #Composting #OrganicRebirth

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

Traditionally, waste management in Kenya has been male-dominated, plagued by harmful stereotypes. But women are breaking barriers, proving their immense value and potential in this critical field. #Kenya #GenderEquality

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

We didn’t just train them.
We equipped them with protective gear.

Dignity is not charity.
It is recognition.

This is #OrganicRebirth 🌱

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

Great strides in Ruiru with our #OrganicRebirth project! 🌍 We are empowering informal waste pickers with decentralized composting skills, tackling the "systems failure" of organic waste. Turning 80% of urban waste into a valuable resource. #ZeroWaste #CommunityImpact

Big news! KEAN International just had an inspiring initial engagement with the Kikuyu Waste Pickers youth group in Kikuyu town for the #OrganicRebirth project! We're officially on the road to #ZeroWaste.

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

This partnership is all about empowering youth in waste management, fostering environmental stewardship, and building a sustainable future. Thrilled to work alongside these dedicated young leaders! #KikuyuWastePickers #YouthEmpowerment #ClimateAction

[KEAN International 🇰🇪🌍🌱🕊 @kean_Intl]

Dignity restored. Our #OrganicRebirth Project formally integrates informal waste workers as co-owners, ensuring fair pay & safety. They are the heart of the circular economy.

This is what environmental justice looks like. Learn more: https://t.co/hhYAorjplW

80% of Nairobi's daily waste is organic. We're not dumping it, we're giving it a #Rebirth. ♻️

The Organic Rebirth Project is turning this waste into wealth & soil health via decentralized Community Compost Hubs.
