What is the Wetlands Restoration Initiative?

The Wetlands Restoration initiative focuses on revitalizing Kenya’s degraded wetlands. These ecosystems are vital for combating climate change, preserving biodiversity, and sustaining livelihoods. Through local collaboration, restoration efforts, and workforce development, we aim to not only restore the environment but also create economic opportunities for local communities.

How We’re Making an Impact

Our Wetlands Restoration initiative combines environmental sustainability with workforce development to create long-lasting impact.

Engaging with local communities to identify priority areas for restoration and provide training in sustainable land management

Equipping local residents with the skills and tools needed to become environmental stewards and restoration experts. By developing a skilled workforce, we ensure wetlands restoration efforts are sustainable and create job opportunities for local communities.

Reintroducing native plants and trees to restore balance to the ecosystem.

Raising awareness about the importance of wetlands and building capacity for long-term conservation efforts.
