NRT and the conservancies
Local community members benefitting from the conservancy model
Indigenous leaders in community conservancies have completed NRT’s bespoke Leadership and Management Programme since its inception in 2016
The Northern Rangelands Trust (NRT) convened a fundraiser event on October 13, bringing together government leaders, development partners, private sector representatives and community leaders in Nairobi to celebrate achievements in community-led conservation and discuss opportunities to sustain the work for generations to come.
For NRT, participation in COP12 provides an opportunity to bring the experience of Kenya’s coastal communities into a wider regional conversation, exchange knowledge with partners and reinforce the importance of community institutions in delivering conservation outcomes.
