Today, we honour Our Heroine, Mother, Sister, Friend, Mentor, Leader and friend of earth and most of all, for her visionary work towards creating a sustainable and peaceful world. During her life on earth, she made practical and replicable linkages between environment, good governance, equity and peaceful coexistence with all living things.  She understood that the spirit of human solidarity and kinship with all life is strengthened when we live with reverence for the mystery of being, gratitude for the gift of life, and humility regarding the human place in nature.

Join the Green Belt Movement in celebrating her Birthday by planting trees to mark this day…..her legacy lives on!

“It’s the little things citizens do. That’s what will make the difference. My little thing is planting trees.” ~ Prof. Wangari Maathai
