About Us

Where conservation and community thrive as one.

Kasigau Wildlife Conservancy

A ranching legacy reimagined.

Our Leadership

Kasigau Wildlife Conservancy (KWC) was originally established as Kasigau Ranch in 1971.

Over the years, it has grown into one of Kenya’s most successful examples of community-driven conservation.

Owned by more than 3,000 local shareholders, KWC combines biodiversity protection with sustainable land use and market-based solutions that generate real benefits for the people of Kasigau.

Our work is guided by a simple belief that: conservation only succeeds when local people are part of the solution.

By protecting wildlife and restoring habitats, we also create opportunities for education, employment, and enterprise that uplift the wider community.

Our Mission.

To engage stakeholders and build community capacity to sustain Kasigau as a protected wildlife landscape for the benefit of both nature and people.

Our Vision.

To be an exemplary community-led wildlife conservancy in Africa.
