Furthermore, the tourism supply chain has a significant cross-cutting impact on many of the other key drivers of our economy such as: agriculture, infrastructure, communication and manufacturing; in addition to the vital role it can play in pro- tecting biodiversity by helping to secure and protect the habitat in partnership with the local communities. Kenya as one of the global leaders of ecotourism, continues to pave the way in pioneering sustainable tourism models and initiatives; this year’s Eco Warriors Gala Awards will be a night to celebrate the leaders and ambassadors of best practice! I congratulate everyone that had the courage to apply, those that were shortlisted and the winners who are our 2014 Eco Warriors! My wish is that these winners will inspire us to greater heights of sustainable tourism for the long-term benefit of our children and country.

    IUCN World Heritage Outlook: https://worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org Kenya Lake System in the Great Rift Valley - 2020 Conservation Outlook Assessment Kenya Lake System in the Great Rift Valley 2020 Conservation Outlook Assessment SITE INFORMATION Country: Kenya Inscribed in: 2011 Criteria: (vii) (ix) (x) The Kenya Lake System in the Great Rift Valley , a natural property of outstanding beauty, comprises three inter-linked relatively shallow lakes (Lake Bogoria, Lake Nakuru and Lake Elementaita) in the Rift Valley Province of Kenya and covers a total area of 32,034 hectares. The property is home to 13 globally threatened bird species and some of the highest bird diversities in the world. It is the single most important foraging site for the lesser flamingo anywhere, and a major nesting and breeding ground for great white pelicans. The property features sizeable mammal populations, including black rhino, Rothschild's giraffe, greater kudu, lion, cheetah and wild dogs and is valuable for the study of ecological processes of major importance. © UNESCO SUMMARY 2020 Conservation Outlook Finalised on 01 Dec 2020 SIGNIFICANT CONCERN The three lakes which make up the Kenya Lake System World Heritage site are subject to pronounced and unpredictable fluctuations in rainfall, water levels and alkalinity – factors which determine the movements of flamingoes and other birds between these lakes, and others beyond. Waterbird counts over the past 20 years suggest that bird populations are stable, but their distribution has changed, with uncertainties over the future of the lakes as the catchment areas come under progressively more intensive land use, with the loss of wetlands through livestock grazing, with increasingly large volumes of water abstracted upstream for agriculture, whilst floods are becoming more severe, with the associated sediments carried into and accumulating within the lakes.

  • Kenyan Stone Age: the Louis Leakey Collection
    World Archaeology at the Pitt Rivers Museum: A Characterization edited by Dan Hicks and Alice Stevenson, Archaeopress 2013, pages 35-21 3 Kenyan Stone Age: the Louis Leakey Collection Ceri Shipton Access 3.1 Introduction Louis Seymour Bazett Leakey is considered to be the founding father of palaeoanthropology, and his donation of some 6,747 artefacts from several Kenyan sites to the Pitt Rivers Museum (PRM) make his one of the largest collections in the Museum. Leakey was passionate aboutopen human evolution and Africa, and was able to prove that the deep roots of human ancestry lay in his native east Africa. At Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania he excavated an extraordinary sequence of Pleistocene human evolution, discovering several hominin species and naming the earliest known human culture: the Oldowan. At Olorgesailie, Kenya, he excavated an Acheulean site that is still influential in our understanding of Lower Pleistocene human behaviour. On Rusinga Island in Lake Victoria, Kenya he found the Miocene ape ancestor Proconsul. He obtained funding to establish three of the most influential primatologists in their field, dubbed Leakey’s ‘ape women’; Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey and Birute Galdikas, who pioneered the study of chimpanzee, gorilla and orangutan behaviour respectively. His second wife Mary Leakey, whom he first hired as an artefact illustrator, went on to be a great researcher in her own right, surpassing Louis’ work with her own excavations at Olduvai Gorge. Mary and Louis’ son Richard followed his parents’ career path initially, discovering many of the most important hominin fossils including KNM WT 15000 (the Nariokotome boy, a near complete Homo ergaster skeleton), KNM WT 17000 (the type specimen for Paranthropus aethiopicus), and KNM ER 1470 (the type specimen for Homo rudolfensis with an extremely well preserved Archaeopressendocranium).

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.

  • Kariandusi an Online Guide to the Museum Kariandusi – a Site in Kenya’S Rift Valley
    Kariandusi an online guide to the Museum Kariandusi – a site in Kenya’s Rift Valley Kariandusi was one of the first early archaeological sites to be discovered in East Africa, which is now famed as a cradle of human origins. The sites lie on the eastern side of the Gregory Rift Valley, about 120 km NNW of Nairobi, and about 2 km to the east side of Lake Elmenteita. From Kariandusi you can look across the width of the Rift Valley. The Nakuru- Elmenteita basin is flanked by Menengai volcano on the north, and by the volcanic pile of Mount Eburru on the south – visible from Kariandusi. Much geological evidence shows that at times in the past this basin has been occupied by large lakes, sometimes reaching levels hundreds of metres higher than the present Lakes Nakuru and Elmenteita. Lying at a height of about 1880 m (nearly 6200 ft, the Kariandusi sites would have been near the side of one of these former lakes. Impressive scarps of the Rift wall rise less than one kilometre behind the sites, continuing as the Bahati Escarpment to the north, and the Gilgil Escarpment further south. The scarps behind rise to 2250 m (7400 ft) less than 3 km from the sites. The site area from the North with the Rift Valley scarp In the background Close to the sites the scarps of the Rift Valley wall are dissected by the valley of the Kariandusi River, which has a relatively short course, fed partly by waters from Coles' Hot Springs, only 2 km from the sites.
