Currently, Weather Mtaani is expanding its outreach through the Bridge Project, which focuses on increasing climate awareness and resilience through community listening groups, school visits, and creative performances. Through engaging skits and plays, the organization educates children and adults alike on the importance of understanding and using weather and climate information in their daily lives. Weather Mtaani continues to champion locally-led adaptation efforts, bridging the gap between scientific information and community action to build a safer and more climate-resilient Kibera.
Knowing weather changes in advance helps people prepare, reduce risks, and stay informed and alert.
