A movement rooted in the highlands of Marsabit.
For generations, the elders of the Mount Kulal region have been the silent guardians of one of Kenya’s most fragile and biodiverse landscapes. Wazee wa Mazingira, “Elders of the Environment,” carries that legacy forward, rooted in the indigenous Samburu community while standing with the Rendille tribe, the Turkana and Elmolo peoples around Lake Turkana, and the Gabra of Gas.
We work alongside pastoralist families, schools, and youth across these communities to restore degraded ecosystems, champion biodiversity, and create dignified livelihoods grounded in the land.
Our Mission
To protect the ecological integrity of Mount Kulal and empower communities to lead sustainable, dignified lives.
Our Vision
A thriving, resilient Mount Kulal ecosystem stewarded by empowered communities for generations to come.
Our Values
Indigenous wisdom · Integrity · Community leadership · Stewardship · Inclusion of women and youth.


“The mountain feeds us. Now we rise to protect her.”
