Eliye Springs Volunteer Summer Program

Learning in Ille Primary school in Eliye Springs Township in Turkana county takes place under adverse conditions. In class rooms with temperatures over 48 degrees celsius learners who primarily speak Turkana are taught in English with teachers being non-natives. There is a huge gap in curriculum delivery. Ceanapse works to ensure early childhood education is delivered in the language they best understand as they transition to a secondary language.

• Enhance understanding, literacy, better education outcomes and early comprehension of climate literacy.
• Designing policy for accessibility of Early Childhood Education curriculum in the native language for underprivileged lacustrine communities.
• Empowering communities through inclusive climate education: Climate literacy for climate justice and equity.

Lacustrine Community Park

Restoring Lake Victoria's shoreline through youth-led action

Shauri Yako, an informal settlement on the edge of Lake Victoria, has been plagued by pollution, waste dumping, and shoreline degradation. Ceanapse is bringing together young people to reclaim this neglected lakeside and transform it into the first ever Lacustrine Community Park in Homabay (a clean, green, community-owned space that protects the lake and restores dignity).

Your Support builds:

• Shoreline Restoration Zone: Bamboo, vetiver grass, and native trees to stop erosion and revive biodiversity
• Community Green Park: Safe, accessible park with seating, shade, and child friendly spaces from recycled materials
• Waste Management Hub: Youth managed sorting points and community sensitization
• Micro Urban Farming: Aquaponics units for food security and income generation
• Environmental Education Space: Open air learning area for conservation and climate workshops

Blue Art: Creative Climate Action

Engage children and youth through art to create awareness and inspire climate ethics

We engage children and youth through artwork to create awareness on the importance and value of our oceans and lacustrine environments. This helps them develop rigorous climate ethics, fearless advocacy, and generous mentorship to the community.

Activities include: Music performances, spoken word art, poetry, paintings, drawings, artifacts, and handmade crafts to make a lasting impression on conservation.
