Saturday, July 26 saw 20,000 young Kenyans formally inducted into the Climate WorX Program, a flagship government initiative that combines climate action with youth empowerment.
The large-scale induction affirms the government’s continued commitment to creating meaningful employment opportunities for young people, while advancing environmental restoration and resilience.
As part of their onboarding, the youth will undergo structured training on key government programs, including the Social Health Authority (SHA), equipping them with knowledge and practical skills for national development.
The program not only engages young people in critical areas such as tree planting, river cleaning, and waste management, but also instills a culture of civic responsibility and patriotism.
This induction is part of the government’s broader plan to link youth employment to the national development agenda, with Climate WorX serving as a platform for job creation, skills training, and implementation of the country’s climate change response strategy.
