This is totally unacceptable! Let our Mau forest breathe please! Should we seat down and see all this happening and act up like we are replanting all soon, a cedar itself take a century+ to mature, indigenous tree cut can never be recovered @ACMI_Africa @Environment_Ke @save_mau

The session was facilitated by @WWF_Kenya and focused on strengthening community awareness, participation, and rights in development and conservation initiatives.

I had the opportunity to attend a Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) engagement session at Shulmai Community Conservancy, bringing together members of the Indigenous Yaaku Community community in Dol Dol.

safe water to drink, and healthier lives for present and future generations. Through tree planting and environmental conservation, we are investing in a greener, healthier, and more sustainable future for all. 🌱💚

Yesterday, as we marked the World Environment Day, we proudly participated in a tree-planting exercise.

This day serves as an important reminder that a healthy environment is essential for our well-being. When our environment is protected, we enjoy clean air to breathe, ...

I will be attending this noble event on 15th June 2026. Youth have the passion, dedication, energy, and manpower needed to lead meaningful environmental action and restoration efforts.

Together, we believe the Mau Forest will breathe again. 🌱

Getting ready towards big day.
Community environmental leaders remain at heart of this journey, having played a vital role in preserving and strengthening the way Ogiek community members have carried out conservation and restoration work over the years.

Hundreds of Ogiek community members are actively managing indigenous tree nurseries, applying valuable indigenous knowledge to nurture specific tree species and improve survival rates, while also creating important economic opportunities for local families.

Ahead of official launch of our restoration activities on 15th June 2025 in the East Mau region by @save_mau, I visited some of the tree nurseries and restoration sites that will be supported and adopted during the event.

The launch will bring together community members, partners, and stakeholders to strengthen ongoing efforts aimed at restoring the Mau Forest ecosystem through community-led action.

[David Warren @SirWarrenDavid]

At the ground level, @save_mau is restoring degraded forest areas through indigenous tree growing, school tree planting, and climate awareness programs. Conservation succeeds when communities are empowered to lead and Indigenous voices are included in decision-making. 🌳

[David Warren @SirWarrenDavid]

I had the opportunity to represent @save_mau in discussion on the role of Indigenous Peoples in conservation. Indigenous communities have protected forests, rivers, biodiversity, & key water catchments like Mau for generations through traditional knowledge and community action.

[Save Mau Forest Initiative @save_mau]

On 15th June, Save Mau Forest Initiative, together with community members & partners, will officially launch a restoration project targeting some of the most degraded sections of the Mau Forest ecosystem and river catchment areas.

Wrapped up an intense week at HRD Digital Security Management coaching in Kajiado. Reignited skills, sharpened awareness, and ready for a demanding year ahead, especially with rising risks to human rights during the political season. Grateful for the growth and renewed purpose.

The rains are finally back. 🌧️🌱💚

It is time for us to return to our land and plant trees, especially integrating them among the crops we are growing. Through this agroforestry approach, we can restore the Mau Forest to its former glory.
