Led by the changemakers who have been through our 2025 Resilience Residential, our Resilience Circles are peer-support spaces where young changemakers in Kenya can process difficult climate emotions, connect with others, and build communities of care.
Over 8–10 weeks, you’ll go on a shared learning journey. You’ll meet weekly in-person to explore resilience, well-being, and sustainable activism – developing tools so that you can keep showing up for people and planet.
Like dandelions scattering their seeds, each Circle helps sow and spread seeds of resilience; small acts of care and connection that take root in communities across Kenya.
Keep reading to sign up for the Resilience Circle that feels like the best fit for you. Then, during the onboarding and welcome session, you’ll agree on the meeting times that work best for everyone.
But act fast… spaces in our Circles are limited! Please note, joining a circle includes a commitment to join and stay within the programme throughout the 8-10 week duration.
