NAIROBI, Kenya, Oct 16 – The Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife has partnered with the Centum Foundation to mobilise US$1 million (approximately KSh129 million) to improve tourism infrastructure, strengthen conservation and enhance safety at Mount Kenya.
The partnership, formalised by Tourism and Wildlife Cabinet Secretary Rebecca Miano and the Centum Foundation, will support the five-year Friends of Mount Kenya Initiative in collaboration with the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) and the Kenya Tourism Board (KTB).
The initiative seeks to position Mount Kenya as a leading global adventure tourism destination by improving visitor experiences, expanding mountain rescue capabilities and creating economic opportunities for communities living around the mountain.
