Sustainability Conference - May 2025

Overview

In May 2025, Kayd Somali Arts will co-host a groundbreaking two-day Sustainability Conference at University College London (UCL), focusing on the urgent climate challenges facing the Somali Horn. Building upon our commitment to community engagement and environmental awareness, this event will gather experts, policymakers, academic researchers, youth advocates, and local leaders to share insights, develop viable solutions, and emphasize the significance of collective responsibility in combating climate change.

What to Expect

  • Collaborative Discussions:

    We’ll bring together environmental experts, policymakers, youth leaders, and local community organisers to share actionable ways to tackle climate change—from renewable energy and water conservation to grassroots sustainability practices.

  • Hands-On Workshops:

    There will be plenty of opportunities to roll up your sleeves and explore practical approaches that range from community-led projects and implementation.

  • Open Networking:

    We hope this conference builds lasting relationships. By connecting passionate individuals and organisations, we can all benefit from one another’s experiences and insights.

Why it matters

At the end of these two days, we plan to create a shared commitment—a practical, community-driven road map for future projects that benefit both local communities in the Somali Horn and our global environment. We’d love for you to be part of this important journey toward a more sustainable future.
