Go Green Mombasa was founded in 2022 as one of the cities chosen by FAO to participate in the pilot phase of the green city’s initiative. The participants and co-founders of Go green Mombasa shared in the vision of FAO which is to redesign cities and build resilience for these cities. The dream would make it easy to provide people with sustainable food, green lifestyles and spaces as well as jobs. The initiative was also aimed at solving problems that have been a menace to our environment such as degradation and deforestation of the coastal ecosystem. This is especially the mangrove and swamp ecosystems. With the green cities’ initiative, it would be easy to spearhead conservation measures and protect city forests.
