Protecting rhinos starts with protecting the ecosystems they call home.
At NETFUND, we recognize that wildlife conservation, ecosystem restoration, sustainable natural resource management and community participation are interconnected.
By restoring degraded landscapes and supporting communities as custodians of nature, we can create healthier and more resilient ecosystems where wildlife can thrive.
This World Rhino Day, let’s protect wildlife, restore nature and build resilience for generations to come.
Protect wildlife. Restore nature. Build resilience.

As we prepare for the October–December 2026 rains, let’s turn awareness into action.
Follow official weather forecasts and early warnings, avoid flooded roads and rivers, keep drainage channels clear, protect wetlands and catchments, harvest rainwater, conserve soil and water, and grow the right trees in the right places.

The State Department for Environment & Climate Change and UNDP Kenya have launched a Joint Rapid Assessment Mission across the Nairobi Metropolis (Nairobi, Kiambu, Machakos & Kajiado)
This initiative is shaping the National Circular Economy Investment Programme (NACIP) .
#NACIP
From early warning alerts to community sensitisation and reinforcement of drainage networks, the Government has intensified measures to mitigate flooding, protect food security and strengthen emergency response systems ahead of the heavy rains #ElNino #EarlyWarning #ElninoAlert
Every day gives us an opportunity to make choices that protect our environment.
From carrying a reusable water bottle and switching off unused equipment to recycling, going digital, and choosing eco-friendly transport small actions can create a big impact.
Let’s make sustainability a habit, one better choice at a time. Together, we can create a cleaner, greener future.

The CEO, NETFUND, Mr. Samson Toniok, today participated in the @CEPREC Kenya International Summit 2026 High-Level Policy Roundtable in Nairobi, where he delivered a keynote address on “Financing Community-Led Clean Energy Innovation: Empowering a Sustainable and Circular Future.” During his address, he called for stronger financing systems that support locally driven clean energy solutions, enabling community innovations to grow into sustainable enterprises that create jobs, improve livelihoods, and advance Africa's clean energy transition.
Drawing on the success of Magiro Hydro Electric Power Limited, a green innovation supported by NETFUND through its Green Innovations Awards programme, Mr. Toniok highlighted how catalytic funding, incubation, technical support, and strategic partnerships transformed a community-based innovation into a thriving clean energy enterprise. From a modest beginning, the project has grown to serve hundreds of households, businesses, schools, health facilities, and industries, demonstrating the transformative power of investing in local ideas and community-led innovation.
He emphasized that Africa's clean energy future depends not only on technology but also on the financing, partnerships, skills, and institutions that enable innovation to deliver meaningful benefits to communities, while placing local people at the centre of the transition as innovators, entrepreneurs, and beneficiaries.
A thriving economy depends on a healthy environment. From protecting our forests and wetlands to promoting sustainable livelihoods and green innovation, environmental conservation is an investment in our future.
At NETFUND, we believe that sustainable development is only possible when we protect the natural resources that sustain our communities and economies.
Protect nature. Invest in sustainability. Secure our future.

NETFUND held a progress and forward-planning meeting with Dr. Peter Scheren, Lake Naivasha Project Supervisor, WWF-US, the GEF Implementing Agency for the project, and Mr. Kevin Gichangi, Manager, Kenya Rift lake Landscape at WWF-K and WWF Technical Lead for the Lake Naivasha Basin Project.
The engagement provided an opportunity to take stock of progress made under the Lake Naivasha Basin Ecosystem-Based Management Project, review key achievements, assess immediate priorities for the next one and a half years, and align on the way forward.
Discussions also looked beyond the current project period, focusing on how to sustain investments, strengthen partnerships and build on the gains already made to ensure lasting impact beyond the project lifecycle.
A key takeaway was clear; sustainability must be built into today's achievements to secure a lasting future for the Lake Naivasha Basin and the communities and ecosystems that depend on it.

As Kenya marks 16 years of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, we celebrate Article 42, which guarantees every person the right to a clean and healthy environment.
This right calls on all of us to protect our environment, conserve our natural resources and safeguard a healthy environment for present and future generations.
A clean and healthy environment is not just a responsibility it is a constitutional right.
Let us uphold the Constitution.
Let us protect our environment.
Let us secure our future.
