“Without action, forests disappear. With your support, communities thrive.”
Women-led conservation in action—nurturing indigenous medicinal trees for people, forests, and future generations.
Indigenous Tree Conservation & Cultivation
Through urgent conservation, medicinal tree nurseries, and propagation of indigenous species, we are protecting the Arabuko Sokoke Forest, restoring degraded ecosystems, and securing sustainable livelihoods rooted in traditional knowledge.
Herbal Medicine Production
Processing of natural herbal medicines from indigenous trees to treat ailments such as high blood pressure, muscle aches, boils, and related conditions.
Youth Training & Capacity Building
Ufanisi Conservation Group empowers young people with practical skills in herbal medicine preparation and forest conservation. Through hands-on training, youth learn sustainable harvesting, seedling nurturing, and indigenous knowledge preservation, building livelihoods while nurturing a new generation of conservation champions committed to protecting Kaya forests and their communities.
Plastic Recycling Training Program
We conduct hands-on training sessions where community members learn how to reuse discarded plastic bottles to create functional items such as dustbins.
These trainings focus on:
- Reducing plastic pollution in the environment
- Promoting creativity and innovation
- Encouraging community responsibility
- Providing practical, low-cost waste solutions
Forest Protection & Conservation
Ufanisi Conservation Group works to protect the Arabuko Sokoke Forest through indigenous tree planting, community awareness, and local conservation patrols. By engaging residents in forest stewardship, the group reduces deforestation, safeguards Kaya forest ecosystems, supports biodiversity, and promotes sustainable livelihoods that depend on conservation rather than forest destruction.
