Introduction
Information sharing from current generation to the next generation is a priority that can be achieved in
schools among pupils and students in primary, Junior primary and secondary schools around Bondo
Town as part of knowledge growth. This programme is for children under the age of 18 years with their
various patrons at school for conservation of the available natural resources through practical actions
towards environmental conservation, wildlife identification, Climate-Smart Agriculture and Tourism
products for children in both private and public schools.
Nonetheless, we further hope to engage student cyclists within the various schools to cycling sessions in
Bondo town as a routine activity towards working together towards environmental innitiatives for
environmental health as well as promote cycling as a sport among youth with membership and
registration dates.

 

Objectives
1. To promote wildlife conservation and tourism among schools in Bondo Subcounty.
2. To impart knowledge to students on environmental rehabilitation through visits to eco-sites in
Kenya
3. To partner with various entities towards achieving specific Sustainable Development Goals
Methodology

We hope to highlight the interested schools and institutions that have an objective to achieve this
endeavor of touring our wildlife protected areas, museums, cultural and historical sites, farm sites, and
related ecotourism sites.

This will involve a private- partnership with schools, institutions, and government. I trust to introduce
Wildlife Clubs of Kenya membership to schools for tourism to national parks and reserves at a fee for
schools, patrons and students. This lowers the gate entry fee for the members and the bus during a visit
to an eco-site in any part of the country.

 

Procedure
Visit the school and agree on the terms for service on transport, commission and stipend as a
compensation basis for tour guiding during park or reserves and ecotourism sites visit, conservation
education sessions at school for the students or pupils, formation of conservation group as science
learners with the support of a patron.
