From our family to yours...Happy International Day of Families The 2024 theme focuses on Families and Climate Change. Empowering families through education, changing consumption habits, and advocacy is critical for effective climate action. Families pass values across generations, so instilling sustainable habits and climate awareness in families from an early age is important. The 2024 International Day of Families aims to raise awareness of how climate change impacts families and the role families can play in climate action. #familyday #FamilyDay2024

It’s #WorldEnvironmentDay2024! Climate change poses a significant threat to Kenya’s socio-economic wellbeing, jeopardizing the achievements made under initiatives like Kenya’s Vision 2030 & #SDGs. At CEPCJ, we have developed several projects aimed at promoting #climatejustice. Through robust research, policy advocacy, and strategic litigation, we aim to hold governments accountable for their climate responsibilities. We also believe in advancing #bizhumanrights in the context of climate justice to ensure that there is corporate respect for #humanrights. We endorse this year’s theme of #WorldEnvironmentDay2024 which focuses on land restoration, halting desertification and building drought resilience under the slogan “Our land. Our future. We are #GenerationRestoration.” #CEPCJ #ClimateJustice.
