Program For The Heritage Of Ogiek and Mother Earth

PROHOME is glad to to participate in the 9th Annual workshop- Defending Defenders: Confronting the criminalization of the environmental human rights defenders in Tanzania,Uganda and Kenya and addressing land rights challenges in grassroots communities.

The first batch of over 2000 indigenous trees from our rescue hub went to Mesipei comprehensive school who closed the school in style. We should all strive to inculcate the culture of conservation among the school kids. @theGCF @CJGEA @GreengrantsFund @theGEF @goldmanprize

As founder and executive director of @ProgramOgiek, environmental #HumanRightsDefender @LMindore is on the frontlines of the fight against #ClimateInjustice in Kenya. Find out more about this #HumanRightsDefender in our #TruthToPowerSeries ⬇️

Our planet & environment belong to the next generation & they are already leading the fight to protect it. 🌍 That's why environmental #HumanRightsDefender @LMindore & @ProgramOgiek joined @GreengrantsFund to lead a climate awareness campaign for Ogiek youth in the Mau forest.⬇️

In a landmark decision, the African Court on Human and People’s Rights ruled in favor of the Ogiek people. Despite the @achpr_cadhp's ruling, the Kenyan government has illegally forced the Ogieks from their home. Learn more about the Ogiek people in our #TruthToPowerSeries ⬇️

The Ogiek people rely on the land to provide for them & in return they promise to take care of the land. “No one cares about the health of the Mau Forest more than the Ogiek,” said @LMindore. The fates of the forest & the Ogiek people are deeply intertwined. #ClimateJustice

The Ogiek people are indigenous to the Mau forest. For years they've faced harassment & violence at the hands of the Kenyan government. @LMindore founded @ProgramOgiek to fight for the rights of the Ogiek people & protect the land they call home. #TruthToPowerSeries
