"The Lake Turkana National Parks represent one of the world's most significant natural and cultural landscapes, with immense ecological, archaeological and heritage value. Through this partnership with Archipelagus, Kenya Wildlife Service is bringing together the expertise, resources and commitment needed to restore and secure this globally important ecosystem. It demonstrates our belief that strategic partnerships are essential in delivering effective, long-term conservation outcomes for present and future generations," said Kenya Wildlife Service Director General, Prof. Erustus Kanga.

Archipelagus will now join KWS, the Turkana Basin Institute, the National Museums of Kenya, the Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research Institute, the Kenya Fisheries Service, the South Island Trust, Community Land Management Committees, and the county governments of Marsabit and Turkana in implementing the revised ten-year management plan for Lake Turkana National Parks.

A significant opportunity for Archipelagus to work alongside an incredible group of partners to help secure the future of this globally significant landscape.
