Forest service trains communities on forest conservation,

The Kenya Forest Service senior deputy chief conservator Charity Munyasya said they have rolled out training to partners so as to add more knowledge to all key players. She said since 2005 when the Community Forests Associations were formed, they had grown with officials and members being enlightened in bits on forestry issues. The CFA members have never let us down. When they were formed, some did not know anything about forestry, but the trainings to enlighten them have helped them a lot. They have grown so much, they can teach, they now understand the need to protect forests, trees and the environment” she said. Munyasya was speaking on Saturday when she closed a week-long training on Participatory Forest Management (PFM) dubbed 'National Dialogue with CFA members', and attended by CFA members drawn from different regions of the country. The KFS had partnered with the National Alliance of Community Forest Associations (NACOFA), Nature Kenya and Kenya Forestry Research Institute to enlighten the CFA. https://www.the-star.co.ke/counties/central/2024-02-11-forest-service-trains-communities-on-forest-management/

                                @joseph_githinji This is good.Sometimes people become ignorant simply because they do not have enough knowledge on how to approach situations.
