Educator, Zizi Afrique Foundation
Esther Gacigi is an educator with over 3 years’ experience working in underserved communities in Kenya to improve the quality of education. She currently works at Mukuru Kwa Njenga, an underserved community, as a climate educator. There, she works to build the agency of teachers, students, and the community, empowering them to take climate action. Esther is also a co-founder of the Pan-African Climate Education (PACE) Network, a collaborative network of climate educators in Africa working together to ensure learners in Africa have access to climate education. Esther believes that there is no quality education without climate education and thus dedicates her efforts to achieving this goal for children in Kenya.
