Ruko Conservancy
Conservation for peace
Ruko Conservancy was established in 2008 and is owned by both Njemps and Pokot communities who live next to each other on the shores of Lake Baringo. The Conservancy’s vision is ‘conservation for peace,’ and its mission is to achieve resilient livelihoods, sustainable land use, and development for local communities. The area, which is located in the heart of the Rift Valley on the eastern shores of Lake Baringo, was once a rich wildlife landscape with diverse and abundant wildlife, but poaching and illegal hunting wiped out many of these species. The conservancy currently has several antelope species, including Impala, waterbucks, lesser and greater Kudus, and a diverse range of bird species.
