“My cohort and I witnessed firsthand how sustainable resource management and environmental awareness must work together. While spotting a lone lion and over a dozen giraffes was breathtaking, it was the encounter with 15 orphaned baby and grown elephants which was truly moving. This experience transposed onto us the realisation that sustainable systems aren't just an option, but a crucial necessity for preserving life and natural environments. Overall, the Kenya trip shifted our perspective from one of observation into a developing sense of responsibility for change and the future.” However, the focus remained steadfast on sustainable systems. A visit to Africa Collect Textiles demonstrated the power of a circular fashion economy where students observed the transformation of over 226,000 kilograms of textile waste into hand woven rugs and toys. This initiative proved that value can be reclaimed from what others discard while simultaneously creating vital employment for local communities.
