Leading energy and infrastructure conglomerate, Sahara Group and the University of Nairobi are working towards establishing a partnership aimed at involving more young Kenyans in the nation’s march towards sustainability.
According to a release by Sahara Group, both organisations met at the university’s corporate affairs division in Nairobi recently to chart a course for a sustainable future in Kenya through collaboration that will focus on giving students mainstream participation.
“The partnership will prioritise using innovation challenges, Science Technology Engineering Arts and Mathematics contests, creative writing and debate competitions, and thought leadership platforms to facilitate generational sustainability in Kenya,” it stated. Speaking following the meeting in Nairobi, Bethel Obioma, Head of Corporate Communications, Sahara Group, said the partnership would be driven by the Sahara Group Foundation, Sahara’s directorate for sustainability, and Asharami Synergy Limited, the energy conglomerate’s downstream company in Kenya.
“Sahara Group is on a mission to spearhead Africa’s march towards sustainability and an inclusive energy transition and we welcome this opportunity to work with the University of Nairobi with great excitement. Together, we can enhance awareness creation and ultimately birth innovations that will create sustainable livelihoods and economic development in Kenya,” he said.
