Kenyatta University Green Education Hub: The Liverary Wangari Maathai Day Edition
Date: 3rd, March, 2025
“Art as a Catalyst for Climate Action: Honouring Wangari Maathai’s Legacy through Creativity”
Art transcends mere expression; it serves as a powerful catalyst for climate action. At the Wangari Maathai Literary Edition on March 3rd, 2025, hosted by the 3Es Experience 
at Alliance Française, we were honored to demonstrate how our ambassadors use art to educate, engage, and inspire communities to take meaningful action on climate change. The event celebrated Wangari Maathai’s enduring legacy, merging literature, art, and environmental activism into a dynamic platform for transformation. Through visual storytelling, performances, and interactive installations, our student-led clubs used artwork to break down complex environmental issues, making them accessible and relatable to individuals of all ages and backgrounds.
At Green Education Hub, we firmly believe that art and education are transformative tools for driving change. The artwork we presented at the edition was more than just a visual display, it was a rallying cry for action. It underscored the vital role young people play in shaping a sustainable future, armed with creativity, knowledge, and a passion for change. By integrating climate action initiatives into education and empowering youth through artistic expression, we can honor Wangari Maathai’s vision and work toward a world where both humanity and the planet flourish.
Our artwork presentation emphasized the critical need for Green Education and the mainstreaming of climate action 
initiatives into educational curricula. Higher education institutions have a pivotal role in equipping students with the skills and knowledge necessary to tackle environmental challenges. By embedding climate education into academic programs, universities and colleges can nurture a generation of informed, proactive, and innovative leaders. Green education goes beyond understanding the science of climate change; it’s about fostering a culture of responsibility, collaboration, and forward-thinking solutions. Together, through art and education, we can empower the next generation to lead the charge in building a sustainable and resilient future.
