Winters in Nairobi

December in Europe and most parts of US means mufflers, ear caps, long coats, and a lot of snow fall. At this time of chilling air and cold breath why not head to somewhere in Africa.


Nairobi, the capital of Kenya is our pick for a fabulous winter holiday. In December 2010, this time throws away your warm coats, pack up your sun hat, flip flops and book your flights to Nairobi, Kenya.


Kenya is a warm country, full of warm hearted people and exciting attractions including wild life safaris, stunning Mombasa beach and vast wild life. Nairobi is the capital and seat of Government. Flights from all around the world stop here and not only that but it is a popular connecting airport for flights to all over Africa. The country’s national airline, Kenya Airways is a world reckoned and top airline in African continent.


Why we recommend visiting Nairobi in winters, is because of its pleasant summer that starts from December to March.


Nairobi is about 1,795 meters or 5,889 feet above sea level. It gets a lot of sunshine year round and enjoys a moderate climate. By using the right terminology we can say that Nairobi has a ‘subtropical highland climate’. In June and July, when sun gets busy warming west temperature in Nairobi drops to 10°C / about a 50°F. Evenings are colder. During this time, if you want to cut the heat and have a chill in summer vacations Nairobi still makes an ideal destination.


From December to March, temperatures in Nairobi keep fluctuating around the 20 to 25°C.


It is the sunniest and the warmest part of the year in Kenya. The highest temperate in June to March is not more than 25°C usually. It is ideal time to discover the sunny and turquoise Kenyan beaches. You can do lot of water sports and indulge in activities that trigger adrenaline. Also wildlife animal migrations and certain photographic and spectacular scenes can be witnessed during wild life safari in African summer.


Specially, if you are travelling with kids and you want to return home without catching cough and flu, flying to a warmer part of the continent is the best choice you can make. And why not, when it is coming in cheap? Flights and accommodations in Nairobi, Kenya are much cheaper than most other beach holidays of its stature. So don’t forget to book your flights in advance and celebrate your new year in Nairobi this time.

Half The Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Worldwide Premieres on WPBT2, October 1, 2 at 9:00 p.m.



Miami, FL (PRWEB) August 26, 2012


Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide, a Show of Force LLC and Fugitive Films production developed in association with the Independent Television Service (ITVS), is a special television event that uses in-the-moment investigations and emotionally explosive storytelling to confront the greatest moral challenge of our time: the oppression of women and girls around the world.



Introduced by George Clooney, Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide premieres on Monday, October 1 and Tuesday, October 2 from 9:00 p.m.-11:00 p.m. on WPBT2.



WPBT2 will host a free preview screening of Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide on Thursday, September 27 at the Little Haiti Cultural Center in Miami. The event begins with a reception and live music at 6:30pm. After the screening, audience members will have a chance to ask questions to a panel of local experts from the Miami International Rescue Committee, Kristi House, Department of Homeland Security and Vida Legal Services. Seating for this free event is limited. Those interested in attending can RSVP to Kristina Gutierrez at Kristina_gutierrez@wpbt.org or 305-424-4025.



The documentary was filmed in 10 countries and inspired by the best-selling book by Pulitzer Prize-winning authors Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn. The series is driven by the growing awareness that empowering women is the best way to increase prosperity and stability around the globe. Six talented actress-advocates Eva Mendes, Meg Ryan, Gabrielle Union, Diane Lane, America Ferrera, and Olivia Wilde join Kristof as he travels to Asia and Africa to meet face-to-face with inspiring individuals working to bring about change and the women and girls who confront extreme gender inequality in their daily lives.

Local Sponsors include BankUnited and Step by Step Foundation. In-kind event sponsors include International Rescue Committee, Kristi House, Lotus House, Women of Tomorrow and Womens International Film Festival.



Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide is part of the Women and Girls Lead initiative, spearheaded by ITVS in partnership with the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and PBS. In addition to ITVS and CPB, major funding for this program has been provided by the IKEA Foundation, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the Ford Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Coca-Cola, the MacArthur Foundation, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation, the Nduna Foundation, the Seedlings Foundation, the Goldman Sachs Foundation, the Hewlett Foundation, the Nike Foundation, the NoVo Foundation, the United Nations Foundation, The Hanami Fund, Ina Brown Bond, and Fran Hauser.



Episode One (Monday, October 1 at 9:00 PM ET)


Eva Mendes and Nicholas Kristof investigate gender-based violence in Sierra Leone, a country where most of the assaults and rapes go unreported. They meet with Amie Kandeh, who works with the International Rescue Committee and runs three of West Africas sexual assault referral centers. Kandeh reveals that the vast majority of the centers rape and sexual assault cases are young women under 17, with 26 percent under age 12. At the police station with her parents by her side, 14-year-old Fulamatu accuses a pastor of raping her. We follow the case closely as several witnesses back up her statements, but justice proves elusive in a country where police officers conduct armchair investigations rather than look for evidence or confront the suspect, and where accusations of rape bring shame on the family of the victim rather than the perpetrator.



In Cambodia, where 30 percent of prostitutes are children, Half the Sky examines the issue of sex trafficking. Meg Ryan and Kristof meet Somaly Mam, herself sold into slavery as a young girl, but who is now a world-renowned leader in the anti-trafficking struggle. Mam runs a center to rehabilitate and educate girls rescued from brothels. She introduces Somana, sold at age 13 and forced to work as a prostitute, her eye gouged out by the brothel owner. When Mam learns that underage girls have been discovered in a brothel on the Thai border, she organizes a daring raid with the help of local authorities and Kristof and the cameras capture this dramatic and dangerous effort to free underage girls being held as sex slaves. Working tirelessly to bring the voices of these girls to the world, Mam uses innovative approaches, such as a weekly radio show, to raise awareness. Were going to change Cambodia, she says. We want you to hear from us. If you dont listen to us, well keep on talking. Were not tired at all.



Gabrielle Union and Kristof visit Vietnam with former Microsoft marketing executive John Wood, who started Room to Read, an organization which works to promote literacy and equal education for girls across the developing world. In Vietnam women have been traditionally devalued, and many girls are kept at home to tend to household chores while boys continue their education. Duyen, a teenage girl in the Room to Read program, travels 17 miles by bike and boat to get to school from her rural home. Nhi, age 14, is the primary earner in the household, put to work by her father selling lottery tickets seven days a week. Phung, also 14, rises at 3:00 AM to care for her younger brothers and sisters while her father works as a day laborer. But she is going to school, encouraged and supported by her father, because they understand that education is their only way out of poverty.



When you educate a girl, theres a ripple effect that goes beyond what you would get from a normal investment, says Sheryl WuDunn. When you educate a girl, she tends to get married later on in life, she tends to have fewer kids. She takes better care of her kids. She has greater economic opportunity. She might create a business so she can contribute to the local economy. When you educate a girl, you educate a village.



Episode Two (Tuesday, October 2 at 9:00 PM ET)


Half a million women a year die in childbirth, says Nicholas Kristof. Its not biology thats killing them but neglect. Diane Lane and Kristof investigate maternal mortality in Somaliland, where one in 12 women dies in childbirth due to poor nutrition and the effects of female genital mutilation (FGM) also known as cutting a brutal ritual that has been performed on more than 130 million women around the world. They meet with Edna Adan, founder of the Edna Adan Maternity Hospital, Somalilands first maternal health facility. Adan saves the lives of pregnant women on a daily basis with sophisticated health care and C-sections. She also trains midwives, who then return to their communities, and works to educate women about the dangers of FGM, which causes infection and scarring that leads to difficulties in childbirth. Lane and Kristof visit the hut of a local woman who performs cuttings and learn how Adan and her army of midwives are trying to turn the tide against this dangerous, deeply entrenched tradition.



In India it is estimated that 90 percent of sex workers daughters follow their mothers into prostitution and, of the three million prostitutes in the country, 1.2 million are children. In Kolkata, America Ferrera and Kristof visit the Kalighat red-light district to meet Urmi Basu, who is working to break the tradition of forced prostitution passed down from mothers to daughters. Basus New Light shelter program was established to protect and educate young girls, children, and women who are at
