Regional Pastoralists Peace Link is one of the trailblazing organizations in Northern Kenya ,that has managed to bring communities together cohesively ;matters peace/conflict resolution while addressing climate change ,natural resources .Word Peace Service  on the other hand, is based in Germany but working with communities globally on peace ,conflict resolution ,enhancing capacities and environments for human rights and democracy to thrive.

The two organizations visited Osinoni to witness progress of the conservation work along the various rivers/wetlands and the wider aspect of biodiversity restoration. It was a lovely afternoon of  networking ,building friendship, learning and a good nature excursion nature walk by the banks of the Isiolo River!

One of the triggers of insecurity and peace instability especially among the pastoralist communities is water scarcity or lack of it.Due to continued environmental degradation, wetlands are exposed thus-impacting on water discharge /flow. The reduction in water volume always sparks conflicts between people and also Human-wildlife conflict.Evidently,peace cannot be achieved in the absence of sustainable, holistic conservation that addresses natural resources as a key aspect .The continued efforts by Osinoni and partners along the Isiolo river has helped increase water flow to the communities and wildlife downstream.WPS and RPPL will continue to work closely with Osinoni on environment/climate change  ,peace building and other key components that are tailored to empowerment of communities and well-being of the world! We look forward to more such productive, constructive visits  and as always welcome to Osinoni!
