EcoKids helps to establish and support environmental clubs in primary schools in Nakuru and Mau Forest Complex. Currently the project assists the schools with setting up nurseries for indigenous tree species and organising training for the teachers.

The team works directly with the children using creative arts including an environmental song and a unique drama production in which the children play the main role.

Mau Forest Complex is an ecosystem providing homeland to many communities and a wide range of biodiversity. Over the last decade, the highland forests of the Mau Complex have been heavily impacted by new settlements, tree cutting and forest excisions. This project supports traditional forms of sustainable forest management and sustainable livelihoods within the Ogiek People’s Ancestral Territories in Eastern Mau.
