Over nearly four decades, this partnership has contributed significantly to advancing forestry and environmental conservation in Kenya's dry and semi-arid lands. ๐ŸŒฑ Through research, capacity development, the production of high-quality tree seedlings ๐ŸŒณ, and improved access to water resources ๐Ÿ’ง, these efforts have also helped strengthen local livelihoods and climate resilience.

One notable achievement has been the ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ ๐—–๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ป๐˜๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐—ง๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—บ๐—ฒ (๐—ง๐—–๐—ง๐—ฃ) ๐Ÿค, through which forestry and environmental professionals from across Africa ๐ŸŒ have come to Kenya to exchange knowledge and share practical experiences in dryland forestry and ecosystem conservation.

During the recent visit, JICA and KEFRI signed the Minutes of Meeting (MM) for a new TCTP that will run from 2026 to 2030 ๐Ÿ“. This program will be disseminating knowledge on breeding for indigenous tree species to various Countries across Sub-Saharan Africa, an expertise that KEFRI has developed over the years partly through JICA support. ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒฑ In the meeting, two organizations also exchanged views on future collaboration to promote sustainable forest management and climate action across the region.

JICA remains committed to working with Kenya and other African countries to build sustainable and resilient communities through knowledge sharing and partnership. ๐ŸŒฟโœจ

๐Ÿ“… On June 4โ€“5, JICA Youth Activities Volunteers in Kenya organized a two-day sector workshop at the JICA Kenya Office, with full support from JICA. ๐Ÿขโœจ

๐Ÿ‘ฅ The workshop brought together JICA volunteers working in different regions across the country to exchange experiences, challenges, and ideas from their field activities. Through interactive discussions, participants reflected on their work and shared practical approaches for supporting children and youth in their respective communities. ๐ŸŽ’๐ŸŒฑ
๐Ÿ“‹๐Ÿ’ก During the workshop, participants also collaborated to develop practical materials that can be used in their daily activities, including posters on positive behavior and life skills for children, as well as a poster on โ€œ๐‘ฉ๐’Š๐’†๐’”๐’•๐’†๐’Œโ€™๐’” 7 ๐‘ท๐’“๐’Š๐’๐’„๐’Š๐’‘๐’๐’†๐’”โ€ for staff working in youth support.
On the second day, participants joined a session with a technical advisor, Dr. Fujioka, who provided professional feedback and practical guidance based on the participantsโ€™ activities. This session allowed volunteers to reflect on their work from a professional perspective and consider ways to improve and sustain their initiatives.

๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ช This was followed by a special guest session with Ms. Sara Ichihashi the Co-founder of Koinonia Education Centre, a value-driven educational institution based in Nakuru County that provides holistic support for highly vulnerable Kenyan youth. She shared invaluable insights from her extensive experience in youth support within Kenya. Her presentation covered effective approaches to working with children and families, building strong collaborations with local staff, and navigating field challenges, offering a highly realistic and grounded perspective on youth development. ๐ŸŒโค๏ธ

๐ŸŒŸ This workshop provided an important opportunity for peer learning and capacity building among volunteers. The knowledge and ideas gained will be applied in their respective sites to further strengthen youth development efforts.

๐Ÿ’ช We look forward to seeing how these initiatives contribute to positive change in communities across Kenya! ๐ŸŒŸ

Did you know that drylands cover over 40% of Africa and are home to half of the continent's population? In Kenya, Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) cover about 80% of the country. They support millions of lives but are highly vulnerable to severe droughts and other impacts of climate change. ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿช

As Kenya proudly hosts the global observance of UNโ€™s World Day to combat Desertification and Drought 2026, JICA is celebrating our strong partnership with the Government of Kenya (GOK) to build climate resilience.
