Wildlife Conservation Lease Program

Thanks to the generous contributions from The Nature Conservancy (USA), the Kenya Wildlife Service and the contribution (Sept. 2009) from the Global Environment Facility through a World Bank/GEF Project, 55,000 acres of savanna grasslands and more than 380 Maasai families are living under the environmental protection of the Wildlife Conservation Lease Program managed by The Wildlife Foundation, up from 8,600 acres in 2007. Nairobi Nat. Park is approximately 28,500 acres, so this expansion of the Lease Program throughout the Nairobi National Park wildlife dispersal area almost triples the size of the ecosystem's protected habitat. Under the written terms of the Wildlife Conservation Lease contract, in return for a contribution of $4 per acre per year, individual Maasai landowners living outside the open un-fenced southern boundary of Nairobi N.P. agree to keep their lands un-fenced and un-cultivated. The landowners further agree to manage their land for wildlife, including lions, and sustainable livestock grazing, the traditional pastoral way of life that has well served both wildlife and the Maasai people for generations. ***** Please support these hard working people and the wildlife that share their land ******

The new Governor of Kajiado County (our project area) is David ole Nkedianye PhD. who is one of the original founding Board members of The Wildlife Foundation. Governor Nkedianye was able to attend the university with the help of The Wildlife Founation and he also is the author of the very important Land Use Master Plan for Kajiado County. Having Governor Nkedianye elected to the top spot of Kajiado's government is going to be a tremendous asset in helping to preserve and protect the wildlife and open-livestock grazing of the Naiorbi Nat. Park wildlife dispersal area.
