  • The Case of the Cherangany Hills, Kenya – State
    Governance regarding land and water distribution in Africa The case of the Cherangany Hills, Kenya - State forest protection is forcing people from their lands Justin Kenrick, Forest Peoples Programme, November 2014 1. Background This study focuses on State conservation initiatives in the Cherangany Hills, Kenya. This concerns a World Bank funded project: the Natural Resource Management Project (NRMP) in Kenya’s Cherangany Hills. Support for this project, in which the World Bank was joined by various other donor agencies, including the Finnish government, is in aid of the Kenyan Forest Service to protect the Cherangany Hills in order to secure their key water catchments functions. The foreign funded interventions by the KFS led to massive evictions of the region’s traditional occupants, the Sengwer people, plus others who had moved into the area more recently. These developments led to international controversy and, following complaints, the World Bank’s Independent Inspection Panel investigated the case. The Panel issued a report which highlighted serious violations of the Bank’s own safeguards and Kenya’s obligations under international environmental and human rights conventions. The Cherangany Hills ecology The Cherangany Hills cuts across four administrative districts in Rift Valley Province. The hills are largely covered by a series of indigenous forests. These forests are made up of 12 administrative blocks.1 The Hills are important biodiversity hotspots as they harbour several forest types and regionally threatened species such as the Lammergeyer, African Crown Eagle, Red Chested Owlet, Sitatunga and Thick Billed Honey Guide. Several Ecosystems depend on water originating from it, including: Lake Victoria (Shared by Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania), Lake Turkana and Saiwa Swamp National Park.

    They Protect the Forests. Who Protects Them? THE INTERSECTION OF CONSERVATION, DEVELOPMENT, AND HUMAN RIGHTS OF FOREST DEFENDERS Lessons from Kenya, Peru and Sri Lanka International Human Rights Clinic Report May 2017 International Law and Organizations Program May 2017 Dedication We dedicate this report to all individuals and collectives who put themselves at great risk to protect the world’s forests and the natural resources within them. We hope that their concerns regarding forest protection will be respectfully Tiffany Basciano heard and that they are provided the space to safely voice their opinions. As such, we call on governments, non- M.Caitlin Erskine State actors, and international institutions to respect the rights of all environmental human rights defenders. Sara L.M. Golden Furthermore, we wish to dedicate this report to those who have been killed for protecting the environment. The Goldman Environmental Prize was established to honor individuals who defend and protect their land and the Kady R. Hammer natural environment at great personal risk. We dedicate this report to Isidro Baldenegro López, second winner of the Goldman Award and indigenous activist, who was killed this year. Throughout his life, he continuously Fabio Iannuzzelli protected ancient forests through nonviolent campaigns and his legacy serves as a reminder of the immense Sarah Sebbar dangers these individuals face to protect their land. We further dedicate this report to Berta Cáceres, who was murdered in 2016, and never stopped her fight to protect her community despite ceaseless threats and intimidation. Rucheta Singh Natalie K.
