Presented By: Tim Roberts

Event: 2nd ECHO East Africa Pastoralist Symposium (03 مارچ 2016)

Session: Tim will give a personal account of his experience with Lewa & the Ngare Ndare forest for over half a century. This will entail the transition from farming in conflict with wildlife to settled coexistence and optimizing the use of the existing ecosystem.

He was posted to Kenya by the UK Overseas Development Administration and joined the Ministry of Agriculture as an extension officer in Meru for 5 years where he met is wife, the daughter of a settler farmer who owned 15,000 acres of land which is currently part of the Lewa estate.
