About

Brenda Michael Mazumba, a passionate Climate Justice activist, graduated from Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA) in 2020 with a BSc in Environmental Sciences and Management. Commencing her career as a volunteer at the Forum for Climate Change, she dedicated herself to climate change activism, adeptly honing advocacy skills at local and national levels. Brenda's impactful efforts included sensitizing and capacitating communities, spearheading climate justice and climate change campaigns, influencing policy-making, and inspiring youth engagement in her community. Recognizing the potential to enhance community resilience, Brenda became a motivating force, rallying fellow youth to actively participate in climate change activism.

As an inspirator, she actively contributes to positive change within marginalized rural communities, ensuring youth, particularly young women, understand their rights and can effect positive transformations through policy advocacy, transformative feminist leadership, community education, and innovative sustainability initiatives. By facilitating youth-driven innovations at the grassroots level, Brenda nurtures the passion for combating climate change challenges within communities. Her goal is to leverage community sustainability and youth enthusiasm to craft impactful solutions on both local and global scales. Notably, she has established and mentors ten climate change youth hubs across Kibondo, fostering knowledge transfer and emphasizing the active engagement of young women. Her impactful leadership exemplifies a commitment to combating climate change while promoting inclusivity and empowerment within local communities.
