How Maasai Women Leading Conservation in Kenya are Healing the Land

In Kajiado County, Kenya, Maasai women have moved from exclusion to leading land restoration: at Kikesen River Conservancy they now sit on grazing committees alongside men; in Iloirero, 70 women cleared invasive weeds, built a seed bank, and now sell grass seed to neighboring areas; the Osiram Women's Group leased 10 acres for kitchen gardens and fencing that reduces human-wildlife conflict while providing food security.
