For centuries, Kenyan communities have protected these vital ecosystems. They didn’t use complex machinery; they used Indigenous Knowledge and kept the balance between people and nature. #CelebratingWetlands #WorldWetlandsDay2026 #WWD2026 #WetlandsandCulturalHeritage

In a world facing a climate crisis, indigenous wisdom is crucial. When we preserve cultural heritage, we preserve: Time-tested conservation strategies and Resilience against floods and droughts. We don’t just save the wetlands; we want to save the soul of the land. #WWD2026

On 2nd February @RAMCEA_ joins the entire world to celebrate world wetlands day 2026. All partner states have organised different commemoration events and this is one way of increasing awareness of the role of wetlands to this planet and its inhabitants.
From prehistoric times, many hundreds of generations of people have settled in and around wetlands, often transforming their wetlands into cultural landscapes in which natural and human-made elements are uniquely combined. worldwetlandsday.org #WetlandsandCulturalHeritage

Sometimes rest is the hardest part ⏸️🏃‍♀️ I haven’t been feeling well recently and being forced to slow down, when running is such a big part of who I am, has been harder than I expected. When your body asks for rest but your heart knows what lies ahead, it can feel like standing still while the world keeps moving. With some big running challenges coming up this year, it’s impossible not to feel a mix of frustration and fear. But this is part of the journey too… listening, recovering, and trusting that patience now is what makes strength possible later. Sometimes resilience looks like running forward. Sometimes it looks like learning how to pause. 👉 🔗 More training updates on Strava: strava.com/athletes/11382607
