Shoke Shoke, that is organizing the event, is the green arm of Mwanaume ni Effort (MNE) and an annual Green Festival targeted at the youth, built on the 3 pillars of Education, Environment and Entertainment.
In a statement, MNE said the sustainable music festival will be the first of its kind in Nairobi to educate the youth on the importance of going green; and driving behavior change among its target audience for a sustainable environment.
At the festival, there will be no single use plastics and there will be recycling points while 10,000 trees will be planted in partnership with Miti Alliance and the Kenya Forest Services to contribute to the government’s Jaza Miti Campaign.
