Building an Inclusive Climbing Community

 
 
 

“When climbers choose to ignore inclusivity, the burden of building an inclusive community is left to fall on those who are systemically excluded.”

Liz Ndindi, founder of Climbing Life Kenya, shares lessons learned through building an inclusive climbing community in her home country. From shaping climbing community culture, to conducting outreach, to taking practical steps to tackle systemic change, this chapter explores what it looks like when climbers make intentional effort to create an environment in which climbing truly is welcoming to all.
