This Strategy is a roadmap for transforming wildlife conservation in Kenya. The strategy is aligned to Kenya's Vision 2030 and the Government's Big Four Agenda. It brings together the aspirations and concerns of Kenyans from across the country as part of a multi-stakeholder effort under the stewardship of the Ministry. The Strategy builds on past and present policies, practices, and reviews historical conservation. It highlights opportunities and innovative approaches to addressing emerging challenges facing wildlife in Kenya while ensuring benefits accrue to the millions of Kenyans who support wildlife on their land.
