2 About WWF-Kenya WWF is one of the world s largest and most experienced independent conservation organizations, with over 5 million supporters and a global network active in more than 100 countries. WWF s mission is to stop the degradation of the planet s natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by conserving the world s biological diversity, ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable, and promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption. Locally, we are ensuring a healthy natural environment supporting below and growth in Kenya. Michael Lusaba / WWF
3 Introduction WWF Kenya is currently implementing energy initiatives to address climate change, energy and footprint issues that directly and indirectly affect conservation efforts through the support of WWF Sweden and WWF Denmark from and respectively. The objective of these initiatives is to ensure that people in programme areas and civil society are strengthened to influence decisions, manage natural resources sustainably and deliver sustainable energy solutions. WWF Kenya believes that investments in sustainable energy streams are vital to attaining Kenya s Vision 2030 because access to reliable and cost-effective energy is a major driver of development. Pathways for energy production must take environmental sustainability into account including Kenya s international commitments to curb CO2 emissions. The programme is implemented at the national level through the formation of national platforms to address Civil Society capacity building, advocacy and campaigns on sustainable access to renewable energy. It also implemented at the landscape/ county level to respond to salient issues in the renewble energy and climate change sectors including in Kwale landscape where WWF supports sustainable energy for improved livelihoods and conservation and, Kajiado County where WWF has installed predator deterrent solar lighting (lion lights) and household lighting initiative to support innovative clean energy solution for resolving human-wildlife conflicts. Finally, WWF Kenya carries out conservation sensitization campaigns in rural off-grid schools. This is aimed at securing environmental integrity and conservation through education for sustainable development and clean energy initiatives in the Africa Rift Lakes landscape (Narok and Kajiado Counties)
4 Problems and the expected outcomes Key Problems 1. Human Wildlife Conflict. There has been regular reported incidences of predators encroaching on human settlements areas and attacking livestock. 2. Lack of access to clean and renewable energy within communities and schools Partners Kajiado County Government Kwale County Government Narok County Government CSO Platforms (Sustainable Energy Access Forum Kenya) Wildlife Clubs of Kenya National Environment Trust Fund Our strategies and Intervention Kwale Clean Energy Village Initiative: Sustainable Energy for Improved Livelihoods and Conservation WWF Kenya launched the Kwale Clean Energy Village Initiative (CEVI) on the 18th of September, 2014 under the theme Sustainable Energy for Improved Livelihoods and Conservation. CEVI targets communities and institutions with a focus on sustainable lighting, cooking and promotion of tree planting to supply their energy needs. Civil Society Capacity Strengthening: delivering sustainable energy solutions in kenya through partnerships Conservation Sensitization Campaigns in Rural Off-grid Schools: securing environmental integrity and conservation through education for sustainable development and clean energy initiatives Predator Deterrent Solar Lighting (Lion Lights) and Household Lighting Initiative: innovative clean energy solution for resolving human-wildlife conflicts

6 Achievements and successes Conservation Sensitization Campaigns in Rural Off-grid Schools: The initiative has targeted 6 and primary schools in Narok and Kajiado Counties, in the initial phase and the schools have so far benefited from installation of Solar PV systems. Through a partnership with the Wildlife Clubs of Kenya (WCK), the schools are currently being engaged through sustained awareness creation and training necessary for securing environmental integrity and conservation. As part of the environmental education, and in addition to the solar PV systems, several initiatives are going to be rolled out in the schools and these include establishment of tree nurseries and woodlots, rainwater harvesting techniques, and biogas systems. WWF Kenya is supporting outstanding CSOs through the Green Innovation Awards (GIA) that are convened by National Environment Trust Fund (NETFUND).WWF Kenya was the first partner to support NETFUND. In 2011, as the only partner, WWF Kenya sponsored the first GIA, then referred to as the Nature Challenge Africa Competition. The overall winner of that event, a Mr. Eric Muthomi, started a company called Stawi Foods and the company has empowered thousands of banana farmers by providing them with a means to generate income. During the GIAII, WWF supported NETFUND to develop GIA Guidelines, Award Policy and Manual, Solar panels at Oldupai Primary School Kajiado
7 and to sponsor the Individual category winner under the Energy Theme. The winner of this theme, Mr. Magiro, has developed a mini hydro power project that is powering over 100 homesteads in Mathioya, Murang a County. This innovative idea is currently being upscaled to enable sale of excess power to Kenya Power Company. Access to sustainable energy services among the most vulnerable is a prerequisite to improvements in the environment as well as their livelihoods, health, education, gender equality and access to information. Kenyan stakeholders in the energy sector have, however, continued to address challenges of energy poverty in a piecemeal approach, with the different service providers concentrating on their own specific energy type resulting in fragmentation of solution provision, and curtailed access of sustainable energy by all. Mr. Magiro at the power plant
8 WWF Kenya has spearheaded the formation of the Sustainable Energy Access Forum Kenya (SEAF-K) to address the limited level of multistakeholder engagement by using a holistic approach that brings together all the stakeholders in the energy sector and provides a platform for addressing the various challenges encountered in the sector. SEAF-K has brought around a common belief that once sustainable energy solutions are provided with a joint thrust through sufficient policy, financial, technological, market and institutional support frameworks, Kenya can secure a sustainable pathway towards access to modern energy services for all. Membership of SEAF-K is open to any credible individuals and registered organizations that demonstrate passion to SEAF-K ideals and commitment to its objectives. They must also demonstrate clear sustainable energy ideals and have hitherto signed membership form. To date, a total of 28 organizations have registered as SEAF-K members. SEAF-K Sustainable Energy Access Forum Kenya SEAF-K has been recognized by the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum as a veritable player in the energy sector and key stakeholder in the Sustainable Energy for All (Se4All) process due to its broad membership representation. SEAF-K has also been co-opted into the Technical Committee and Technical Team of the SE4All process.
9 SEAF-K Vision: All Kenyans have total energy access to clean and sustainable energy services. SEAF-K Mission: Provide a platform for multi-stakeholder engagement and participation in addressing sustainable energy access for all.
10 Emerging issues Tackling Climate Change in Lake Naivasha Basin - The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change defines vulnerability as the degree to which a system is susceptible to, and unable to cope with, adverse effects of climate stress, including climate variability and extremes. This policy brief is based on review of documents and field interviews carried out in WWF climate change adaptation project in Naivasha basin WWF November, The findings revealed that delivering adaptation through collective action is doomed to fail due to the problem of the tragedy of the commons. Measures to reduce vulnerability should therefore target households where key decisions about investment are taken.
11 WWF / Simon Rawles Call to action Under a changing a climate, the vulnerability of lower Lake Naivasha is expected to increase with considerably effect on Lake Ecosystem and livelihood. In order to reduce community vulnerability in Lake Naivasha basin, planned adaptation actions will need to consider four main issues: 1. Creation of awareness across the wide spectrum of the community to understand actions necessary to reduce vulnerability. 2. Address the whole value chain to enable identification of likely challenges in implementing them. 3. A shift from collection action towards individual adaptation where decisions quicker and more flexible. 4. Participation of a broad stakeholder to respond to the vulnerability problem confronting the lake basin.
