Cartier for Nature is supporting SORALO to help people and wildlife thrive side by side in this shared landscape. Established by the South Rift’s Maasai communities to halt the fragmentation of rangelands and preserve their unique culture, SORALO works to secure communities’ collective tenure over their natural resources and establish community-led wildlife conservation areas across the region. Under this model, local communities find consensus on the sustainable use of their resources and monitor and protect wildlife in their area while keeping their cultural practices alive. The initial results are highly encouraging, with two of SORALO’s pilot communities boasting some of Kenya’s highest lion densities. With Cartier for Nature’s support, SORALO aims to further strengthen eleven existing community conservancies and establish four new ones by 2025.
