How Hope Raisers Uses Digital Storytelling to Build Community Climate Resilience in Nairobi, Kenya | Daniel Onyango

In this episode, I discuss a bit about community climate change adaptation and the importance of incorporating the youth voice in decision-making with Daniel Onyango, the founder of The Hope Raisers Initiative. The Hope Raisers Initiative uses arts, culture, and sports to amplify the youth voice in the neighbourhood of Korogocho in Nairobi, Kenya. Through the organization, community members get opportunities to creatively transform public spaces in their neighbourhood whether that is through music, murals, or matatus (i.e. buses).In this episode, you'll learn about:How their Future Yetu program is breaking down barriers between the public and public policymakersHow digital storytelling can be an important tool in addressing climate changeHow Hope Raisers leveraged local transportation to gather community insightsWhy Daniel thinks integrating youth in city-building and climate adaptation initiatives is importantand much more!Guest: Daniel OnyangoWebsite: https://www.hoperaisersinitiative.com/Instagram: @hoperaisersTwitter: @raisershopeMusic by Imany LambropoulosMore Urban Limitrophe:Episode show notes and references: www.urbanlimitrophe.comInstagram: @urbanlimitrophe Podcast concept and development by Alexandra Lambropoulos.
