Podcasts about Nairobi

In this episode of the 10Adventures podcast, we are joined by Chris Finch, author of Wild Cities, about the critical role nature plays in modern urban life — and how cities around the world are finding simple, innovative ways to reconnect people with the outdoors. Chris explains key concepts from the book, including biophilia, the human need for nature, and homo urbanus, the rapid shift to city living that has reshaped our daily experience over the last century. Together, they explore inspiring examples from cities across the globe: Japan's research on nature and stress, Nairobi's challenges with “biophobia,” Singapore's groundbreaking green buildings, Medellín's wildlife corridors, Barcelona's superblocks and BC Buses, and more. This conversation shows how nature isn't a luxury — it's a necessity that improves health, happiness, safety, and even biodiversity. And importantly, many of the most effective solutions are low-cost, scalable, and already transforming cities today.

La COP30 à Belém, au Brésil, entre dans sa deuxième semaine ce 17 novembre. Parmi les sujets abordés de ce grand sommet mondial sur le climat, il y a celui de la sécurité alimentaire. En Afrique, elle est menacée notamment par la croissance des villes. Selon Africapolis, le continent connaît un des taux d'urbanisation les plus rapides au monde. D'ici à 2050, les villes africaines accueilleront 950 millions d'habitants supplémentaires. Alors, comment nourrir ces populations urbaines ? À Nairobi, au Kenya, dans le bidonville de Kawangware, on fait le pari de l'agriculture urbaine.  Reportage de notre correspondant au Kenya,  Jane Changawa habite un petit immeuble délabré de Kawangware. C'est sur le toit qu'elle a lancé, il y a trois ans, ce qu'elle appelle « sa ferme » : 50m² de plantations. « Là, on a des haricots verts, des tomates, des patates douces. On a aussi des épinards et du chou kale. Ma ferme est 100% bio. J'ai mes petits tuyaux. Vous voyez, par exemple, les oignons nouveaux sont plantés au milieu du chou kale. Quand ils sentent les oignons, les insectes s'enfuient. L'urine de lapin est aussi très efficace contre les insectes. Et si je mélange une tasse d'urine et cinq d'eau, ça me fait aussi de l'engrais », raconte Jane Changawa. Jane et sa famille consomment la plupart de sa production. Le reste, elle le vend pour environ 6 000 shillings par mois, soit une quarantaine d'euros. C'est la moitié du salaire minimum légal au Kenya. Lilian Nyariki, elle, vend des légumes dans la rue. Et c'est chez Jane qu'elle s'approvisionne. « C'est beaucoup plus intéressant pour moi que d'aller au marché de gros » « Ici, j'achète en général du chou kale, des épinards et des oignons. C'est beaucoup plus intéressant pour moi que d'aller au marché de gros. Quand je vais au marché, je dois prendre un bus. C'est assez loin. Ça me coûte 200 shillings (environ 1,30 euro, NDLR). Alors qu'ici, je n'en ai pas besoin. Jane vend aussi moins cher. Sept choux kales me coûtent 20 shillings (0,13 euro, NDLR), contre 500 à 1 000 shillings (3,30 à 6,60 euros, NDLR) au marché de gros. Avec Jane, je fais de bons profits », explique Lilian Nyariki C'est l'Association kényane pour les femmes en agriculture (Awak) qui a formé Jane. Ce jour-là, dans une petite église de Kawangware, Julius Mundia, membre de l'organisation, enseigne à une quarantaine de femmes. L'idée du projet lui est venue pendant la pandémie de Covid-19, alors que le confinement a provoqué une grave pénurie de nourriture dans la capitale. « Il est tout à fait possible de produire de la nourriture à Nairobi, dans des endroits exigus. C'est comme ça qu'on a inventé les jardins verticaux. On utilise n'importe quel contenant disponible : des sacs, des vieux vêtements, n'importe quoi dans lequel on peut mettre du terreau. Après, on plante des graines. Un sac peut parfois contenir une centaine de graines. On peut utiliser les toits des immeubles. Avec un simple balcon, on peut faire quelques jardins. Et pour l'eau, on utilise les eaux usées de la cuisine », explique Julius Mundia. Awak a déjà formé plus de 15 000 femmes.  À lire aussiComment promouvoir l'agriculture urbaine pour nourrir les villes africaines ?

Have you ever wondered how a hotel could bring people together and transform a city? In this episode, I talk with Shamim Ehsani, co-founder of Nairobi's Tribe Hotel, whose vision of “one planet, one tribe” turned hospitality into a living message of unity. Growing up in Kenya, Shamim learned that respect and connection cross every boundary—and he's built that belief into everything his team does. We explore how Tribe became a symbol of dignity and authentic service, how art and culture shaped its identity, and why true hospitality starts with valuing people as they are. Shamim's story reminds us that purpose-driven leadership can turn even a simple idea into something truly unstoppable. Highlights: 00:58 — Learn how early experiences in Nairobi shaped a lifelong passion for curiosity, courage, and connection. 02:35 — Discover what makes Nairobi one of the world's most extraordinary cities and why its character inspires unity. 06:55 — Hear how understanding your environment can shape how you design meaningful experiences. 08:06 — Explore how real-world learning can teach the mindset every entrepreneur needs to succeed. 12:56 — Find out why action, not perfection, builds confidence when you're starting something new. 15:27 — See how vision and perseverance can transform even small beginnings into lasting success. 21:12 — Learn the importance of staying bold when the world around you feels uncertain. 26:44 — Discover how one phrase became the foundation for a purpose-driven movement in hospitality. 33:44 — Understand why true hospitality begins with dignity and self-respect—for both guests and teams. 36:45 — Hear how empowering people to be authentic creates connection and loyalty that can't be scripted. 44:17 — Learn how investing in people builds confidence, culture, and trust across every interaction. 52:42 — See how storytelling and creativity turn ordinary moments into unforgettable experiences. About the Guest: Shamim Ehsani is Co-Founder, Director and Developer of Tribe Hotel, a family-owned and operated, 5-star luxury hotel in Nairobi, Kenya, that channels African authenticity and excellence. Shamim co-founded the hotel, located in the city's prestigious diplomatic district, and serves as its Creative Director, developing new concepts relating to F&B and service. He is also the hotel's Marketing Director, overseeing all branding and marketing efforts across the companies and outlets, including developing all of the brands. Shamim also plays a key role in a constellation of family enterprises that are centered on real estate development. A prolific and successful entrepreneur, he is also Co-Founder, Director and Developer of Trademark Hotel, Tribe Hotel's 4-star sister property; Director and Co-Founder of VMX Fitness, Nairobi's top fitness facility; Principal and Creative Director of Beeline, a luxury brand marketing agency; Director of Guardian Holdings, a holding/investment company; and Marketing Director of Village Market, East Africa's largest lifestyle and recreation complex. Shamim co-founded Tribe Hotel with his brother Hooman in 2008 to fulfill a need for a 5-star luxury hotel in Nairobi's upscale diplomatic district. The brothers listed the 20 things they did not like about hotels and set about to create their own that addressed them. The result is a higher standard in global hospitality, with the hotel distinguished as one of the most iconic properties in Africa. The hotel's guests include royalty, heads of state and countless celebrities. The property boasts 128 rooms, a 10,000-sq.-ft. spa and a heliport. Tribe Hotel broke away from the colonial style hotels that existed in the market and presents a space that supports the arts and is a better reflection of the wealth and dignity of Africa and the Kenyan people. They transformed the attitude of service from a subservient approach to one that is more egalitarian and congenial, with guests being “hosted” rather than “served.” The hotel boasts 900 African artworks and artifacts curated by Shamim's mother, Faranak, supports local Nairobi artisans and purveyors, while its acclaimed Jiko restaurant has elevated African cuisine to new heights.

For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible… all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together… and through him to reconcile to himself all things… by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.” — Colossians 1 : 15–20 (NIV)Show NotesThe dawn reminds us that Christ holds all things together — the sun rises because He wills it.

Katika kujifunza lugha ya Kiswahili, leo mchambuzi wetu ni Daktari. Josephat Gitonga, ambaye ni Mhadhiri katika Chuo Kikuu cha Nairobi nchini Kenya,  kwenye kitivo cha Tafsiri na Ukalimani anafafanua maana ya methali "CHA KIPOFU KI MKONONI MWAKE"

My guest today is Eva Yazhari – General Partner at Beyond Capital Ventures and one of the most original thinkers in the world of impact investing.Trained on Wall Street, Eva left finance to found Beyond Capital, turning her expertise toward building impact-driven markets. Beyond Capital Fund was structured as a nonprofit, a 501(c)3 – not to do charity, but to meet the moment. She describes it as “almost like a Trojan horse” – a structure that made her approach more acceptable to early supporters, even as she operated with full VC rigor.She knew in 2009 that most investors did not yet believe emerging markets could deliver both returns and impact. So she created a structure that was more palatable – donors could get a tax deduction, while she quietly ran the fund like a VC from day one. There were no grants. No concessionary capital. They always behaved like a VC.The result was a top‑quintile track record: a 0.3% loss ratio, markups, and over 100 million people reached through portfolio companies' products and services.But the nonprofit structure also kept the firm smaller than it needed to be. “I think it was the right thing to do, but I think it was a little bit of a mistake in the growth of the firm.”In 2019, someone approached her after a talk and simply asked, “How do we invest?” – and that was the moment she knew the market was finally ready.She and her team launched Beyond Capital Ventures, a for‑profit venture fund, carrying forward the same thesis with a structure that allowed investors to participate directly in the returns.Today, Beyond Capital Ventures invests in early-stage companies across East Africa and India. It's one of the few woman-led impact VC firms globally, with a team that's 70% based in the markets they invest in.Eva's approach is hands-on, thesis-driven, and unafraid to push boundaries. She refuses deal flow from Europe or the U.S. because she believes the best opportunities come from being on the ground. As she says, “I'd rather the principal who runs our Nairobi office meet a founder while filling up his water bottle, than us meet them through some other channel.”Beyond Capital has pioneered something radical in VC: the equitable venture structure. 10% of the GP's carry is allocated to portfolio founders. Not only does it create community – it's created collaboration. That motivates companies across her portfolio now to share customers, talent, and capital.She measures impact as rigorously as she measures financial performance. Her team uses a three-tier framework aligned with IRIS and SDG metrics. And she's clear-eyed about what success looks like. “Everybody is focused on sourcing better and investing better. Nobody is focused on adding value, and that is exactly where everything goes right or wrong.”Eva's career is proof that creativity, service, and capital don't have to be separate. And that you can build something that lasts if you're bold enough to hold them together.Listen in.—Connect with SRI360°:Sign up for the free weekly email updateVisit the SRI360° PODCASTVisit the SRI360° WEBSITEFollow SRI360° on XFollow SRI360° on FACEBOOK—Additional Resources:- Beyond Capital Ventures website- Eva Yazhari LinkedIn- Eva Yazhari Instagram- Book ‘The Good Your Money Can Do'- The BCV Podcast

Sie nennen sich M23 oder RSF. Es sind die Milizen im Kongo und im Sudan; sie führen Krieg im eigenen Land. Es geht um Macht und Rohstoffe - auf die Bevölkerung nehmen sie keine Rücksicht. Es gibt Vorwürfe schwerster Menschenrechtsverletzungen, die Lage im Sudan gilt als die aktuell größte humanitäre Krise der Welt. Zwar hat die RSF-Miliz dort einer Waffenruhe zugestimmt, doch die scheint brüchig. Was steckt hinter den grausamen Konflikten? In beiden Ländern sind Milizen oft aus lokalen Gemeinschaften entstanden, die sich selbst schützen wollten, aber dann zu Tätern wurden. Es sind Milizen, die nicht nur kämpfen, sondern wirtschaften: mit Gold, Menschen und Waffen. Es zeigt sich, wenn ein Staat zerfällt, übernehmen Milizen nicht nur die Waffen, sondern auch die Macht. Gewalt wird zur Wirtschaftsform und Straflosigkeit zur Regel. Gibt es Wege aus der Gewalt und was hilft den Menschen im Kongo und im Sudan? Wir sprechen mit der Politikwissenschaftlerin Niddal Salah-Eldin, mit Katrin Jullien, Regionalbüroleiterin der Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe in Nairobi, mit Dr. Astrid Irrgang, Geschäftsführerin des Zentrums für Internationale Friedenseinsätze und mit Nadège Kusanika, der im Kongo geborenen Autorin des Buches “Unter derselben Sonne“. Podcast-Tipp: 11KM: der tagesschau-Podcast Krieg im Sudan: Warum das Land in Gewalt versinkt Im Sudan wütet ein brutaler Bürgerkrieg. Im Kampf gegen die sudanesische Armee hat die paramilitärische Miliz “Rapid Support Forces”, kurz RSF, die Stadt Al-Faschir eingenommen. Es wird von Vergewaltigungen, Massenmorden, und brutalen Hinrichtungen berichtet. Nach UN-Angaben steht das ganze Land am Abgrund einer humanitären Katastrophe. Nina Amin aus dem ARD-Studio Kairo ordnet in dieser 11KM-Folge ein, was gerade im Sudan passiert. Sie erklärt, was den Konflikt so kompliziert macht und ob es eine Lösung in diesem laut UN „vergessenen Krieg“ geben kann. Redaktionsschluss für diese Folge war 6.

Over the years we have taken the 3 Books podcast on the road many times ... from recording in ​Judy Blume's bookstore​ in Key West to to the ​back of Jackie's Uber​ in St. Louis to ​Jonathan Haidt's kitchen​ in New York we've gone where the stories take us. And for the first time we are going to the 55-country and 1.5 billion person continent of Africa. I am so excited to share the first of three chapters of 3 Books recorded in Nairobi, Kenya. I landed there and went whizzing down busy streets with colourful stalls, wandering goats, people pulling carts full of eggs, women carrying baskets on their heads, endless whizzing bodas (motorcycles). I visited the lovely home of novelist and professor ​Peter Kimani​ — where he lives with his wife Anne and their two boys. Peter is a huge mind and talented writer whose work spans New York Times Notable novels such as '​Dance of the Jakaranda​' to writing a poem for Barack Obama's presidential inauguration. Peter has studied at the University of Iowa—the Harvard of writing schools, perhaps!—and earned his doctorate at the University of Houston. He was awarded the Jomo Kenyatta Prize for Literature, Kenya's highest literary honor, and is a professor at Aga Khan University in Nairobi. Let's sit down outside in his backyard garden, near the mango and orange trees, below the calls of the Pied Crows, and discuss normalizing abnormalities, decolonizing our minds, The Hardy Boys, writing as an extension of living, whitewashing conservation, Peter's 3 most formative books, and much, much more... Let's flip the page to Chapter 154 now...

This week on Select, we have Prïss, one the most exciting DJs and producers coming out of Beirut. Known for eclectic sets that weave through funk, soul, house, minimal, breaks and leftfield techno, Prïss is now based in Nairobi, where she has been exploring alternative music and sound design, collaborating with regional artists on live performances and releases that challenge conventional club frameworks. A familiar name on the global circuit, Prïss has shared the decks with international heavyweights like Dixon, Âme, Gerd Janson, A Guy Called Gerald, Nick Höppner, Éclair Fifi, and HVOB. Her versatile style has taken her from Beirut's Ballroom Blitz, where she held a monthly residency, to stages across Paris, Austria, Jordan, Switzerland, Hamburg, and Berlin. Outside the booth, she runs Puzzle.ke, a Nairobi-based events brand known for pushing the boundaries of venue design, visual production, and curation, spotlighting musicians in immersive, experimental setups. For her Select set, Prïss delivers a glitchy, futuristic journey through deep-tech and minimal house, one of her favourite musical styles. Expect acid-tinted basslines, obscure samples, and flashes of Italian dream house, with tracks like Nicole Moudaber's “A La Follie” and Onirik's “Spencer Direct Line.” It is this kind of set that feels like staring out the window of a rocket ship zooming into space.

The RSF (Rapid Support Forces) have taken the city of el-Fasher, in Darfur, from the Sudanese army. The city had been under siege by RSF fighters for 18 months, trapping hundreds of thousands of civilians and sparking a hunger crisis. Thousands are now trying to flee. And there are mounting fears of mass killings and sexual violence - some of which are feared to be ethically motivated. The civil war in Sudan has been going on since 2023. But some believe that this could be a turning point. Deka Barrow, a journalist from BBC Monitoring who's based in Nairobi, joins us to explain why. We also hear from someone who is trapped in el-Fasher.

She explains how releasing the pressure to have perfect words opens space for God to work through us.

Alors que les paramilitaires des Forces de soutien rapide (FSR) ont annoncé « la prise de la ville d'El-Fasher », cette « victoire militaire pour le général Hemedti » serait en réalité « une défaite politique », affirme notre invité, le professeur soudanais Suliman Baldo. Il est également directeur exécutif de l'Observatoire de la Transparence et des Politiques au Soudan. Y a-t-il un risque de génocide au Darfour ? Va-t-on vers une partition est/ouest du Soudan ? En ligne de Nairobi, il répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Suliman Baldo, comment expliquez-vous la victoire militaire des FSR du général Hemedti à el-Fasher, six mois seulement après leur défaite à Khartoum ? Suliman Baldo : Bien sûr, les Forces de soutien rapide avaient mis un siège très strict autour d'el-Fasher pour plus de 18 mois, c'est-à-dire en interdisant même l'arrivée de denrées alimentaires ou bien les livraisons médicales pour les hôpitaux locaux. Et ils avaient bombardé la ville durant toute cette période. Et ils ont aussi utilisé des drones contre el-Fasher. Et à quoi ont servi ces drones très sophistiqués et de fabrication chinoise ? Il y a plusieurs mois que les Forces de soutien rapide ont acquis bien sûr des drones sophistiqués d'origine chinoise, mais aussi des moyens de défense aérienne qui ont empêché l'armée de l'air soudanaise de ravitailler sa garnison à el-Fasher. Est-ce que les Émirats arabes unis et le Tchad ont joué un rôle dans cette victoire militaire des FSR ? Les Émirats sont, disons, les fournisseurs du matériel de guerre de toutes sortes pour les Forces de soutien rapide. Et donc, ils ont joué un rôle principal et de taille. Le Tchad est seulement un instrument, disons, dans les mains des Émirats arabes unis, comme c'est le cas de la Libye de Haftar, en particulier pour les Forces de soutien rapide. Depuis une semaine, de multiples témoignages décrivent les atrocités commises par les FSR contre les civils appartenant à des communautés non-arabes, notamment la communauté Zaghawa. Est-ce qu'on est en train d'assister à la réplique d'el-Geneina, où 15 000 Masalits avaient été massacrés par les FSR, en juin 2023 ? Je ne crois pas que les victimes qui ont été liquidées par les Forces de soutien rapide à el-Fasher étaient toutes des Zaghawas. Le comportement des Forces de soutien rapide est totalement hors contrôle de leurs commandants. Et donc, lorsque les FSR ont pris la ville, l'armée et les forces conjointes alliées à l'armée avaient déjà pu se retirer de la ville, laissant la population civile derrière elles. Une population civile qui compte un quart de million de personnes. Et donc il y a eu un ciblage des Zaghawas, mais c'était aussi sans discrimination. Parfois, c'étaient des membres de différents groupes ethniques. C'était surtout une revanche sur les populations d'el-Fasher, qui avaient résisté à l'invasion de la ville pendant le siège de la ville. Certains observateurs se demandent si la situation n'est pas comparable aux premières heures du génocide au Rwanda, en 1994 ? Ce qui s'est passé est horrible et c'est une forme de crime commis d'une manière systématique. Mais je ne crois pas qu'il y ait eu l'intention d'éliminer une composante de la population sur des bases ethniques ou autres. Le général Hemedti affirme avoir fait arrêter plusieurs de ses combattants soupçonnés d'exactions et avoir ouvert une commission d'enquête. Est-ce qu'il cherche à échapper éventuellement à ses responsabilités ? Je crois que c'est une réaction à la condamnation globale, partout dans le monde, mais aussi une réaction, au sein de la population locale, face aux tueries qui ont eu lieu à el-Fasher. Je ne pense pas que les Forces de soutien rapide s'attendaient à cette réaction collective de l'opinion mondiale et locale. Et l'annonce de ces enquêtes est une façon d'essayer de contenir les dégâts que, disons, les réactions à ces tueries ont créés. Bien sûr, la prise d'el-Fasher est certainement une victoire militaire, mais ce qui s'est passé après représente une défaite politique totale et une défaite morale pour les Forces de soutien rapide. C'est à cause de ces atrocités, dont les Forces de soutien rapide sont devenues très spécialisées dans la commission de ces crimes de guerre et crimes contre l'humanité. Est-ce qu'après la partition du Soudan du Sud en 2011, il ne va pas y avoir une seconde partition, du Soudan de l'Ouest cette fois-ci ? Il y aura une partition de fait, dans la mesure où il y aura deux gouvernements rivaux qui contrôlent chacun une moitié du pays. Mais je ne pense pas qu'il y aura sécession du Darfour ou bien de l'ouest du Soudan avec le reste du pays. Ça va être, disons, une situation comme en Libye, où il y a deux administrations qui contrôlent deux portions de territoire, mais il n'y aura pas une partition du pays.

In this powerful and first-ever interview with a Latter-day Saint convert from Kenya, we explore the remarkable faith journey of Dr. Joe Ngatia (pronounced “ga-tia”). Africa has become one of the fastest growing regions for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, yet Joe's story reveals the complexities behind that growth – from faith and miracles to history, race, and resilience.Joe shares his encounter with the missionaries and how his family first reacted having only heard rumors about “Mormons being devil worshippers.” His story moves from Nairobi to Rexburg, Idaho, BYU-Provo, and on to medical school in Florida, chronicling his faith, struggles with racism in America, and developing cracks in his testimony. Joe reflects on questions of revelation, truth, miracles, and identity – asking what it means to remain true to one's own spiritual experiences while confronting painful history?This is one of our most profound and far-reaching conversations yet – bridging continents, beliefs, and experiences in search of understanding.___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.
