This study evaluates the influence of Laudato Si’, the 2015 Papal Encyclical by Pope Francis, on environmental consciousness, attitudes, and sustainable behaviours among Catholics in urban Kenya. Using mixed methods—survey data from 200 Nairobi parishioners, interviews with Catholic clergy and environmental activists, and field observations—the study found moderate awareness of Laudato Si’. However, significant attitudinal and behavioural differences emerged between informed and uninformed respondents. Informed individuals were more likely to view environmental care as a Christian moral duty and actively engage in practices such as tree planting, waste reduction, and clean-up campaigns. Key challenges include resource constraints, socio-economic limitations, and uneven parish leadership capacity. The findings suggest that the encyclical can significantly foster ecological conversion through enhanced faith-based education, youth engagement, and church–government collaboration.
