Restoring the Heart of Kikuyu: Ondiri Wetland

Restoring the Heart of Kikuyu: Ondiri Wetland

Restoring the Heart of Kikuyu: Ondiri Wetland

Nestled in Kenya's Kikuyu Sub-County, Ondiri Wetland emerges as a geographical marvel, boasting the title of Afrika's second deepest quaking bog. Despite facing modern challenges like pollution and deforestation, the Friends of Ondiri Wetland Kenya (FOWK) tirelessly champion its restoration. Gazetted as a protected area, efforts include reforestation, fencing, and community partnerships. The recent Ondiri Run, commemorating World Wetlands Day, emphasized the urgent need for conservation. As we navigate through the delicate balance between human activity and environmental preservation, Ondiri Wetland stands as a testament to the enduring connection between humanity and nature.

In restoration, one never gets the real experience until they get hands-on in the field. We had the privilege to host the youth teams at our Big Ship offices, where they explored some of our successfully restored sites, took part in mangrove planting exercise and got first hand experience of what mangrove restoration feels like. Together, we learned and unlearned  some of the Nature-based solutions, best practices in mangrove restoration and conservation, and how they integrate with community livelihoods.
