Conservation education: from the mouths of babes
This year, Born Free partnered with Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) to facilitate the annual essay competition. With the theme ‘The Future of Wildlife in the Modern World’, we targeted from primary to tertiary institutions in the Eastern Conservation Area that comprises Meru and Kora Parks, and Bisanadi and Mwingi National Reserves; and Mountain Conservation Area comprising Mt. Kenya, Aberdare, Mwea, Samburu, Shaba, Laikipia and Maralal National Parks and Reserves. More than 200 and 500 students participated in the Eastern and Mountain Conservation Areas respectively.
