Turning invasive biomass into a useful resource! Stems from Prosopis juliflora were processed in a biochar production machine and converted into biochar, demonstrating how cleared invasive vegetation can be put to productive use. #Biochar #EcosystemRestoration

Restoration work continues at Lochoredome! Soil and water conservation structures are being established alongside the cutting and destumping of invasive Prosopis juliflora. Practical steps towards healthier, more resilient ecosystems. #EcosystemRestoration #LandRestoration

At Nationokar, we cleared invasive plant species, including Prosopis juliflora and Euphorbia kalisana. The cleared biomass was repurposed into fencing to help deter livestock and protect the site ahead of future ecosystem restoration interventions. #EcosystemRestoration

Play, learn, grow and thrive! Through the Tucheze Tustawi Project, caregivers are creating play materials from locally available resources, accompanied by a community-created song highlighting play from the womb, adequate nutrition, early learning and safe play spaces.

Day 5 of the Tucheze Tustawi Project caregiver training focused on producing local play items using locally available materials. By equipping caregivers with practical skills, we can create more opportunities for children to learn, explore and grow through play. #Childdevelopment

The Tucheze Tustawi journey continues. The team visited Biafra Health Facility in Nairobi, engaging with health workers and learning more about the environments supporting children and families. Creating spaces where children can learn, play and heal. #ChildDevelopment

Ecosystem restoration in action. Maize showing good plant vigour and establishment. Okra actively flowering and fruiting. Soil & water conservation structures showing good alignment and spacing. Small changes on the ground can contribute to healthier, more resilient landscapes.

Play for learning. Play for healing. Through the #TuchezeTustawi Project, participants explored child development, brain development and age-appropriate play materials, all while experiencing the joy of learning through play. Because play is an essential part of childhood.

The journey begins. Today, we launch our Ecosystem Restoration Project, working with communities to strengthen environmental sustainability, build resilience and support a healthier future for both people and nature. #EcosystemRestoration #ClimateResilience #ACMEKenya
