Justice Ole Keiwua Scholarship Programme

KWT strongly believes that a
new generation of educated
young leaders in conservation
is essential to harmonizing the
often fractious relationship
between Big Cats and the
people who live with them.

Since 2005, KWT has been
running the Justice Ole Keiwua
Scholarship program, offering
scholarship opportunities, at
undergraduate and diploma
level to study wildlife and
conservation related courses,
for young men and women
from Greater Mara, Samburu
and Amboseli. This
programme has proved
a success in using higher
education as a means to allow
people to attain decent work
relevant to their community
and their lives, offering
them a proper voice in
their county’s future.
