The oceans and vast terrestrial waters may seem endless, inexhaustible and indestructible but the truth is they are in serious trouble.

WHAT IS WWF- KENYA DOING?

Together we are: 

Working to generate a new wave of support for sustainable waters. 

Building  a wave of support for our oceans and terrestrial waters with fishing communities and responsibility bearers.

Highlighting the importance of healthy water bodies to end support for damaging activities and invest in creating healthy marine and terrestrial water bodies ecosystems.

Working with  communities, Kenya Forest Service, Kenya Wildlife Service and the Fisheries Department, to impliment co-management approaches in forest and marine protected areas.

Contributing to the protection of biodiversity rich ecosystems e.g   the designation of the Boni-Dodori ecosystem as one of the world’s Important Bird Areas, the recognition of Shimba Hills ecosystem w as a priority national water tower -the only one in the coast region and support for improved management  forests in this ecosystem. 

Enhancing the capacity of CSOs to influence change in natural resource management and governance in Coastal Kenya across sectors such as water, forests, wildlife, marine, fisheries and oil and gas.

Influencing policy through development and implementation of the Lamu County Spatial Plan - the first of its kind in Kenya. It influenced the enactment of Kenya’s first National Spatial Plan and the National Land Use Policy
