 For the past year, C4 has been working with community institutions for the management of forests, the Community Forest Associations, CFA's and the Water Resource Users Association's RUAS. The purpose was to strengthen the capacity of these institutions to work jointly and collaboratively to manage forests and water together. C4 has been partnering with NGOs and government organizations, including the Green Belt Movement, the East African Wildlife Society, the Kenya Forest Service and the Water Resources Agency. This work has been conducted in two forest sites, in the Mau Forest Complex and in three sites, in the Mount Elgon Forest. In Itari and Lundiani, up to about 15,000 trees have been planted in the sites that were identified. This was undertaken jointly after our planning process in the first capacity building activity. In the previous participatory management forest plan 2012-2017, more than 500 hectares of land in Lundiani Forest were planted with both exotic and indigenous tree seedlings. So, what we are seeing here is a typical well-managed forest. The species is Cuprisas luisternica, the other side you can see Pinas patula. This is the future of forestry in Kenya, whereby the community are allowed to embrace participatory forest management. Another program in this station is the Natural Forest Rehabilitation, which occurs in 7,000 hectares. Again, the CFA has been actively engaged in planting a variety of sort of indigenous trees like Punas Africana, Cedar, Podokap, Podo, the Dombayas in this area. We have a lot of work to do here in the forest, we have a lot of work to do in the forest. In Itari Forest, the situation is not different either. From 2016, there was intervention of C4 and its partners in sensitization of the communities in Itari. There was capacity building of CFA and Rua members and the main objective was to encourage these two community associations to work together. There is need to come together in terms of joint activities so that we do conservation to the best of our ability. So earlier on there was missing care, but as it now, we are together, we agreed to work together as I join entities who has a common agenda of conservation and protection of our environment and water. You will find that each association was operating separately. You know, the CFA, we were so much inclined in the issues of forest. So issues of Rua came later when we realized that we are dealing with a common natural resource that is inseparable. In along Itari Jemosit Water Resources Association, we have 13 indigenous tree nursery right from the source and inclusive to the middle and to the lower. Now how they started before was just a passion of the community. There is no option away from working together because Rua, as much as their interest is mainly on water, the forest is the main source of water, but we also realize that it is still important for the Rua to still operate. We are operating jointly, but our reduction is five kilometers away from the main forest. But the Rua, for them, they even extend up to the lake. And there are so many joint activities that we really will share. Remember, the Riberian area extends very far. Our thinking is that we raise seedlings, we sell to them, where they are going to be all five kilometers, we allow them. On top of the source of the Riva Itari, we also came together with another community forest association of Donet and we planted almost 85.4 hectares, almost 200,000 indigenous tree seedlings. So you see that working together with the CFA is the direction I would wish to as the chairperson of Itari Jemosit. The county government strongly supports the journey of conservation and rehabilitation of forest and water resources and has contributed riverine, land and equipment towards riverine tree planting. For you to move the best way forward, move with the county. And what we did is that we integrated our SCAM, the new SCAM that was done through CFA. Then we agreed to integrate with the CIDB, the county integrated development plan.
