Summary
Buffalos, hartebeest, elephants and carnivores are exposed to high levels of poaching for bushmeat and body parts trading because of inadequate participatory management of the Mole National Park with park-fringing communities, inadequate nature-based livelihoods and low law enforcement. The objective is to empower park-fringing communities for increased community benefits and participatory wildlife management. This will be achieved through the provision of nature-based livelihoods, agroforestry systems and strengthening of the MWK and Chakali Sungmaaluu CREMAs
