We have previously worked with 15 schools and 7 community groups in Kisumu County to help in the conservation of Dunga and Yala papyrus wetland ecosystems. This has seen the establishment of 12 environmental wildlife clubs in 12 schools and five community-based umbrella associations working for environmental awareness and ecotourism. More than 125 young people have directly benefited from these initiatives with at least 8 going on to study conservation-related courses for careers at the college level.
