Landscape governance & partnerships

Fences, schools, patrols and funding only work when KWS, KFS, CFAs and donors share decisions. This programme keeps those agreements visible and active.

Problem: Mountain forests span many land tenures and agencies; single-tool projects rarely last without shared management and clear roles.

Action: Rhino Ark convenes public-private partnerships so communities co-manage ecosystems, technical agencies set standards, and supporters fund agreed work plans rather than one-off builds.

Outcome: Programmes like the Mau Eburu fence show what shared ownership can deliver: maintained infrastructure, reported results, and forest-edge voices at the table when plans change.
