Ms. Bessy Eva Kathambi, a PhD student at Wangari Maathai Institute of Peace and Environmental Studies was honoured to have been selected to participate in 6th Graduate Programme of Sustainability Science – Global Leadership Initiative (GPSS-GLI) symposium at the University of Tokyo, Graduate School of Frontier Sciences.
Ms. Kathambi presented a poster on factors affecting Sustainability in adoption of the Green Concept in Environmental Management in Nairobi, Kenya at the symposium whose theme was dubbed, “Framing into Action, Bringing sustainability thinking into practice.” Her presentation highlighted the importance of the green concept as a framework through which sustainability can be achieved and the practical platform of effecting change in the environment.
She presented the green concept as the framework for sustainability in environmental management and governance explicating the avenues through which institutions can create synergies in information and technology sharing through co-designing and co-implementation which form key pillars in sustainability science.
