While Kenya has made progress in combatting poaching, especially of large game, illegal trade in wildlife remains a threat. This project focuses on wildlife law enforcement through community involvement in two project areas, the Maasai Mara and Tsavo ecosystems, through a highly coordinated approach within and between wildlife management and law enforcement authorities, as well as Wildlife Conservancies established by local communities in the project areas. The proposed National Strategy to Combat Poaching and Illegal Wildlife Trade will guide the law enforcement efforts at national and project area levels. At the ecosystem level, multi‐agency responses to poaching and illegal trade in wildlife will be coordinated, and law enforcement teams supported through relevant training, equipment and infrastructure. An existing community‐scout system will be strengthened as part of enhanced relationships with, and involvement of, local communities in conservation. Wildlife and other natural resources will increasingly be managed locally through the creation of new Community Conservancies (with a total additional area of more than 23,000 ha), with benefits accruing directly to rural communities. The project’s Objective is to combat poaching and illegal wildlife trafficking in Kenya through an integrated approach. To address the development challenge and achieve the Objective the project will implement four Strategies/Components: Component 1. Strengthening national and local capacity for effective IWT control in Kenya; Component 2. Reducing poaching and illegal wildlife trade in threatened species in Tsavo and Maasai Mara ecosystems; Component 3. Strengthening Community Wildlife Conservancies in Tsavo and Maasai Mara ecosystems; Component 4. Knowledge Management, M&E and Gender Mainstreaming. This project is part of the GEF Programmatic Approach to Prevent the Extinction of Known Threatened Species, and falls under the GEF Program “Global Partnership on Wildlife Conservation and Crime Prevention for Sustainable Development” (9071). Under this programmatic framework, with the coordination through the Project Board, coordinated knowledge management and cross‐fertilisation of the individual projects will be assured.

Whichever, it is considered a peace-loving and kind animal and one heralding a year of promise and prosperity. We Homepage - Elephant Trust certainly hope the peace and kindness will win through for elephants. Support our Work Elatia Here in Kenya the New Year has started out with many positive initiatives made by individuals and groups. Because the international media tends to focus only a few well-known conservationists, it leads to a false impression that Kenyans are not concerned about their wildlife and habitats, but this is far from true. There are many grass-roots movements that make us proud to live in this country. In this issue we will be highlighting two Kenyan conservation heroes and some upcoming events in aid of wildlife. Amboseli continues to be peaceful. There were no elephants poached at all in the last quarter of 2014 thanks to our partners the Big Life Foundation, the Kenya Wildlife Service and the community with which the elephants share their range. In Kenya as a whole poaching has been reduced, but we are aware that the situation could reverse rapidly. The demand for ivory is stronger than ever and the price of ivory is very high leading to temptation and corruption. Elephants in many other countries in Africa are being wiped out.
