We are delighted to announce that our project, in collaboration with Nottingham Trent University and Enarau Conservancy has been funded by Earthwatch, marking a significant milestone in our efforts toward ecological restoration. As part of this initiative, we will be hosting Earthwatch volunteers from 2025 to 2027 to contribute to our research endeavors. The project aims to address critical issues in savanna restoration, focusing on the Greater Maasai Mara Ecosystem. Through hands-on fieldwork and data collection, volunteers will play a vital role in making a tangible impact on local ecosystems and communities. #EcologicalRestoration #Savanna #Conservation #MaasaiMara #Biodiversity #CitizenScientist #Research #ParticiparyResearch https://lnkd.in/dWHaiUYy
