The Bambooo Project
Restoration of Biodiversity to combat climate change Impacts and Lead a Youth Green revolution in semi-arid zones of Mt. Kenya East Region.
Our trust is spearheading a transformative afforestation project aimed at restoring biodiversity and revitalizing river ecosystems across the Mt. Kenya East Region. The project focuses on planting trees along rivers and streams—commonly known as riparian corridors—within the counties of Laikipia, Meru, Isiolo, Embu, Tharaka Nithi, Samburu, and Marsabit.
This initiative seeks to:
Restore diminishing local biodiversity
Increase river water volumes
Provide fodder for livestock
Supply sustainable fuelwood for local communities
Sequester greenhouse gases and mitigate climate change
Improve nutrition and livelihoods through fruit tree planting
At its heart, the project is community-driven. We will collaborate closely with:
Local cultural associations
School environmental clubs (Environmental Champions)
Faith-based organizations (FBOs)
Interested individuals passionate about environmental stewardship
By aligning ecological goals with the social and economic needs of local populations, this project ensures that the primary beneficiaries are the very communities living within these regions. Together, we aim to build a greener, healthier, and more resilient future.
