Can love for the land be the ultimate tool for conservation?
Artist Elsaphan Njora explores whether emotional connection, rather than just science or policy, is the key to protecting our planet. This talk examines how communities in Kenya are revitalizing vanishing ecosystems through creative and unexpected methods.
Njora shares his journey across Kenya, where he has witnessed the disappearance of vital ecosystems, including sacred lakes and Indigenous forests. However, his observations extend beyond loss to include stories of renewal. He highlights how local communities are actively breathing life back into rivers, coasts, and forests. These efforts demonstrate that conservation can successfully thrive alongside human livelihoods, proving that even the most threatened landscapes possess the potential for rebirth.
