A Kenyan Grassroot Conservation Organization working with
communities in Amboseli to protect the landscapes we share.
Our Story
It started with a question: where were the girls?
While working in Amboseli, Dr Winnie Kiiru noticed that many Maasai girls who began school were no longer in the classroom by around Class Five. Their absence revealed a deeper truth: conservation cannot be separated from the realities, opportunities and wellbeing of the people who share the landscape with wildlife.
Conservation Kenya was founded in 2012 from that conviction.
Today, we work with communities across Amboseli to restore habitats, strengthen livelihoods, build conservation knowledge and support locally led solutions.
