How do culture, community, and creativity come together to protect the environment? Meet Fredrick, a 2025 True Blue Fellow from Kenya, whose initiative “Embracing Maasai Culture to Safeguard Our Environment” is transforming conservation into a living expression of Maasai identity. 🌍🔥 From planting 750 indigenous Ilkeek trees, to documenting ancestral stories, Fredrick’s work proves that environmental protection is strongest when rooted in culture. Through mentorship across continents, our FBYC team watched this project grow into a movement powered by women, elders, youth, music, stories, and tradition. 🌿💫 Read the full story on the blog at: bowseat.org/news/safeguarding-the-environment-through-maasai-culture-frederick #BowSeat #CreativeActionforConservation #FBYC #TrueBlueFellowship #artivism
