The proposed project will protect the ecological integrity of Lake Turkana ecosystem by increasing the understanding of all stakeholders including oil exploration companies, the national and the local county governments and local communities of the unique biodiversity value of the lake.

Kivulini Trust will work on the Eastern shore of Lake Turkana, targeting the Turkana, Rendille, El-Molo, Gabbra and Daasanach communities who depend on the integrity of the lake basin ecosystem for their cultural, economic and spiritual wellbeing.
