Konservation

The word Konservation is derived from the Chichewa word Konza – an indigenous language spoken by the Bantu people of East and Southern Africa. Konza encapsulates; the ambition to solve problems. In this context, Konservation serves to make young people realize that they have the capacity to tackle emerging problems that plague our communities and our environment. The ethos of our work is to sustainably develop rural-based communities as a means to achieve environmental conservation. Konservation has ongoing grassroots projects in south-west Kenya that raise awareness about climate change, promote conservation agriculture, empower women and increase access to solar technologies.
