How Miss Environment is regreening her town in Kenya
She started visiting schools to introduce them to her initiative and taking it beyond waste management, to mobilize them to set up tree nurseries to raise fruit tree and indigenous tree seedlings that the community could later plant on school grounds. This turned into the Green Champions Programme where she sets up competitions, and the students who are most eloquent on environmental issues in their poetry, essays, drawings or school plays win the title of Green Champion.
How Miss Environment is regreening her town in Kenya
Joan Tonui was just 22 years old when she won the Miss Environment championship title in Bomet. She told the jury she wanted to work with women and children to raise their awareness about living in a clean environment and teach them about waste management in urban areas. With a background in public health, with a focus on water and sanitation, she had learned how some countries separate waste into different categories, such as glass, plastic and paper, and she wanted to introduce that concept to local primary schools.
