[Elizabeth M. Mrema @mremae]

Today I had the honour of opening the Youth Environment Assembly #YEA2025.
Over 2,000 young leaders showed once again that youth are not the future; they are partners shaping the world of today.

Your energy, advocacy & science-driven action give multilateralism its heartbeat.

[Alphonce muia @MuiaAlphonce]

I was deeply honored to deliver a moving tribute to a remarkable leader and mentor of so many youth from around the world ⁦@PMOsano⁩ as he transitions from ⁦@SEI_Africa⁩ to ⁦@CIFOR_ICRAF⁩ . Huge congratulations sir!

As a Ministry, we are immensely grateful for the technical support that we received from @SEI_Africa when Kenya hosted the inaugural Africa Climate Summit in 2023, as well as in the development on a draft national action plan for short lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) ~PS Ng'eno

[Dr. Richard Munang @RichardMunang]

The sixth session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (#UNEA6) is set to take place from February 26 to March 1, 2024, at the @UNEP headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya- the Environment Capital of the world under the theme of "effective inclusive and sustainable multilateral actions to tackle climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution,". #UNEA6 represents a significant opportunity for nations and stakeholders worldwide to advance a wide range of critical environmental issues. From addressing ocean governance and restoring ecosystems to sharing experiences on nature-based solutions, the assembly is poised to make substantial strides in environmental multilateralism.

Leadership dialogues will delve into pressing topics such as the role of science, data, and digitalization in our transition to a sustainable future, the capacity of the global financial system to tackle climate change, nature loss, and pollution, and the effectiveness of environmental multilateralism in delivering fast enough. These dialogues, alongside a series of MEA side events and exhibitions, aim to foster a comprehensive and actionable dialogue among all participants.

Stay tuned for updates and insights as we embark on this critical journey at UNEA-6, a testament to the power of collective action in the face of environmental challenges​.

Stay tuned as the world joins forces to tackle global challenges for #nature, #climate, and #pollution, marking a decisive decade for both people and the planet.

The African Group of Negotiators on Climate Change (AGN) plays a critical role of consolidating the African position and projecting continent's voice on climate change in international fora.

[Dr. Richard Munang @RichardMunang]

Just had an insightful conversation with @LarryMadowo about the intricate ties between climate change and health. 🌍 As our planet warms, areas across Africa see rising malaria cases. Is this the consequence of our changing climate? This isn't just a regional concern—it's a global wakeup call. 🚨 #ClimateAndHealth #globalchallenges

[Ministry of Environment, Climate Change & Forestry @Environment_Ke]

As Kenya, working with the African Union Commission and UNFCC, we look forward to successfully hosting and engaging with all AMCEN member states for both the ACS (Sept 4th to 6th), and Africa Climate Week (Sept 4th to 8th) at KICC in Nairobi.

An honor to engage with the bright minds of Africa's Youth Climate Assembly @AYCAssembly2023. Their fervor for #natureaction and #pollutionaction signals a paradigm shift in climate solutions. As the upcoming Africa Climate Summit unfolds, the role of our youth is pivotal in shaping an Africa-centric climate agenda. @UNEP stands ready to offer technical guidance and to co-create solutions that reverberate across the continent. Together, we'll scale inspiration into action, leveraging their work for a more sustainable Africa. #Youth4Climate #AfricaClimateSummit @UNEP_Africa @DamarisMungai_M @lizwathuti
