This happened during an evening of celebrations at the
conclusion of the Global Landscapes Forum (GLF) African Landscape Restoration
event at the UN Environment headquarters, Nairobi.
Rocky, a celebrated global performer with a
decade-long career, is an avid humanitarian and environmentalist, lending his
voice to amplify issues of poverty, environmental degradation, water and
sanitation issues and women’s rights.
“There is so much positive energy in Africa and many
opportunities to protect and restore the environment across the continent, and
music is a powerful force that brings people together and inspires action,”
Dawuni said.
“I want to work with communities and help them share
their successes and encourage them to keep moving forward to make the future
brighter for generations to come.”
Rocky is uniquely positioned to generate support and
publicity amongst his audience for UN Environment’s messages.
UN Environment executive director said, “Dawuni’s
eloquence, cultural diplomacy and successful melding of music and activism have
led him to become a passionate spokesperson for various global causes.”
