A piece of carton becomes a welding shield, while skilled hands turn metal into a wheelbarrow. At Jua Kali workshops, creativity isn’t just in what fundis make, but in how they make it. #JuaKali #MadeInKenya
Among Nairobi’s mountains of waste, waste pickers recover discarded plastics, glass and aluminium—turning rubbish into livelihoods and resources for a second life. #Nairobi #WastePickers #Recycling #Environment #conservation #recycling @UNEP
Hands Recovering Value, One Recyclable at a Time.
These hands turn discarded materials into livelihoods while keeping plastics, glass and metal out of waterways and ecosystems. #Nairobi #WastePickers #Conservation #Recycling #Environment @mwarv @UNEP
For waste pickers, discarded plastics, glass and metal mean income. Recovering them also keeps waste from waterways, reduces pollution and gives materials a second life. #Nairobi #WastePickers #Conservation #Recycling #Environment @UNEP @WBG_ClimateEnv

At the source of the Nairobi River insects inhabit a quiet highland ecosystem sustained by vegetation and moisture. Pollinators, predators, and decomposers signal a balanced system, but expanding urban pressure raises concerns over protecting this fragile river source.
Next time you walk through Ngong Forest, take a moment to look closer. Beneath the leaves and fallen logs, a tiny world of insects, fungi and forest creatures quietly keeps the ecosystem alive. 🌿🐛 @mwarv @magicalkenya @KEFRIHQ @icipe @KeForestService #NatureEscape #forests
Small forest dwellers including millipedes, fungi and katydids play a vital role in breaking down organic matter on the forest floor in Ngong Forest.
Beneath the towering trees of Ngong Forest lies a hidden world where insects and tiny creatures quietly sustain the ecosystem, breaking down fallen leaves and rotting wood to return nutrients to the soil. @mwarv @KeForestService @UEF_EntoNet @KEFRIHQ @icipe

Downtown Nairobi - one of the areas I haven't ventured into with my camera.
So, when an opportunity came up, courtesy of @mwarv & @BoniMuthoni while in the company of @kesh_nthamba, I had to jump on it!

This is Kanairo.
Walking between Tom Mboya Street and Muthurwa with a camera isn’t something anyone can do fearlessly.
So I got together with @BoniMuthoni @mutahichiira @kesh_nthamba and Winnie and captured this rarely photographed side of Nairobi.
