Happy New Week 🎉

🌍✨ We’re honored have @halihewapodcast featured on Deutsche Welle, in a story beautifully done by @wacera_

This feature is a powerful reminder of the journey Hali Hewa Podcast has walked over the last three years; the conversations, the learning, and the commitment to telling stories that matter.

Our hope is that we continue to inspire more storytellers to speak boldly on climate and environmental justice, and to be advocates for change. Because the safety of our environment and our planet ultimately determines our health and well-being. 💚🌱

Special thanks to @kalukipaul for being a wonderful guest. We had an insightful conversation on the podcast, check out our latest upload on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Youtube for the episode. Not to forget our wonderful hosts @ondiriwetlandke for taking time to show us their incredible work.

Last but not least, our friends over at @semabox_africa that let us use their new space. Be sure to check that out as well.

Had a blast working with @wacera_ and @ashton_254 on this piece 💚

How do you stay hopeful in your work? @abigaelkima kept it real and said… « I don’t » 😭

I was not expecting that answer but really feel that!
Its very emboldening to hear that even as a successful climate activist, Abigael still experienced burn-out and frustration.
As young people and especially if you stand for or feel deeply believe in a cause, whether it be climate change or other issues, it can be really easy to lose hope/ get tired, and even face burnout!
And that relation between our mental healths and the global climate and crises are NOT talked about enough imo…-

Watch the full episode on youtube or listen on Spotify (link in bio), I KNOW you will enjoy it a lot!

“Our countries don’t hate peace, we know there’s people behind the scenes fueling war”
In this episode, we’re pulling the thread between colonial legacy and the crises still unfolding right now.

@abigaelkima - producer and host of @halihewapodcast shares about the conversations missing from the climate movement.
We don’t forget Congo, Sudan, and the question we rarely ever hear — where does colonial legacy end, where does neocolonialism vs. governments’ accountability begin? Many realities can be true at once.

What do you think: are environnemental and political crises mostly inherited, or mostly kept alive from the inside?
We want your take 👀 this is a safe space for respectful and constructive discussions.

The world lowkey seems like it’s falling apart some times…, and as young people, it’s easy to feel powerless. But if there’s anything I’ve learned from recent protests in France ans historic uprisings all over the world including Kenya, it’s that young people have a lot more power than it seems!
For those who saw the battle as too mighty to face but we must remember our strength is in our numbers, as @abigaelkima said “We have the skills, the energy, the numbers” to make the difference in the climate movement!

We call it waste. But for someone else, it could be a livelihood, an opportunity, or a source of income.

That’s one of the conversations I’m looking forward to at this year’s Sustainable Water & Waste Management Policy Forum. What happens when we stop asking, How do we get rid of this? and start asking, What can we create from it?

I’ll be at the forum exploring these conversations for @halihewapodcast, and I’m especially curious about the people and ideas rethinking how we see water, waste and the circular economy. 🎙️♻️

📅 7–8 October
📍 Nairobi

Co-funded by the European Union and delivered through the SCEJU project by PACJA, FES Kenya and CSUDP.

Access to safe water shouldn’t depend on where you live. 💧

This October, I’ll be at the Kenya Sustainable Water & Waste Management Policy Forum, exploring a question that feels simple, but really isn’t: what does it actually take to make safe water accessible to everyone?

I’ll also be recording a special episode of @halihewapodcast from the forum, bringing together voices from policymakers and practitioners, and most importantly, the communities living these realities every day.

The activity is supported through the SCEJU project, co-funded by the European Union.

Can’t make it to Nairobi? You can join the forum virtually too. Just scan the QR code on the poster to register.

Happy New Week!

🌍 Still reeling from the conversations in Gaborone.

🚜 From critical minerals and industrialisation to value addition and homegrown solutions, the Just Transition Learning Exchange challenged us to think beyond exporting raw materials and towards building economies that create jobs, strengthen industries and deliver shared prosperity.

🎙️ Following his opening remarks, we spoke with @Hon.Dr. Phenyo Butale, Botswana's Minister of International Relations, to discuss what an authentically African just transition could look like, what lessons Botswana's development journey offers for the rest of the continent, and why African solutions must remain at the heart of Africa's development.

Here's what he had to say. 🎥👇
