Background

About Winnie Cheche

As a passionate Sustainability and Climate Action Specialist with over seven years of diverse experience, I’ve dedicated my career to environmental advocacy, NGO operations, and impactful project management. My mission is to empower organizations and communities to create systems that drive meaningful social and ecological change. With a background in Wildlife Management, I’ve spearheaded initiatives that embrace climate-smart agriculture and renewable energy solutions. One project I'm particularly proud of is the Going Green Initiative, where we set up solar-powered boreholes and drip-irrigation kitchen gardens in orphan centres and arid communities. It’s initiatives like these that truly show how sustainability can transform lives. As the Founder of The Eco Advocate, I’m fortunate to collaborate with incredible partners, including UNDP, the London School of Economics, Caritas Internationalis, and Greenpeace UK. Through digital storytelling and community engagement, I strive to inspire a commitment to sustainable living and advocate for policies that protect our planet. I focus on blending operations leadership with sustainability strategy, ensuring that impactful work not only achieves its goals but also runs smoothly and effectively. My core areas of expertise include: Sustainability Leadership, Climate Action, NGO & Project Coordination, HR & Systems Development, Advocacy & Community Engagement, and Environmental Communication. 🤝 I’m always open to new opportunities for collaboration, consultancy, and leadership roles in sustainability, conservation or NGO operations, both in Kenya and remotely. Let’s connect and work towards a more sustainable future together! | Twitter:@WinnieCheche | thisischechewinnie@gmail.com
