Who We Are
Rooted in Nakuru.
Rooted in Nakuru.
Driven by Justice.
The Nakuru Team of Young Lawyers Voice on Climate YLVC is a passionate group of youth advocates, legal minds, and community leaders committed to advancing climate justice in Nakuru County and the broader Rift Valley region.
From the fragile wetlands of Lake Nakuru to the farms of the escarpment, our work is shaped by the realities of those who live closest to the land. We believe that lasting change is built from the grassroots through education, legal empowerment, and collective action.
We amplify youth voices in climate governance, push for accountable environmental policy, and build a generation of climate-literate advocates ready to defend their communities.
