Our History
From humble beginnings to transformative impact—the story of LANCCI's growth
The Conservation Story
Initiated in May 2019, our key mandate is to champion the protection and conservation of both flora and fauna, sensitize communities on effective and sustainable land use practices, monitor and fast-track community conservation progress for the posterity of the current and future generations.
LANCCI was formally registered in September 2021 under the Ministry of Labour and Social Services as a Community-Based Organisation. Ever since its formation LANCCI has been sensitizing the community members on biodiversity protection and conservation through scientific and traditional ecological knowledge.
We envision a future where the delicate balance between human activities and natural environment is upheld, ensuring the preservation of biodiversity and well-being of both present and future generation in the Laikipia North Region. Our key mandate is to champion the protection and conservation of both Flora and Fauna, sensitize communities on effective and sustainable land use practices.
