BORANA
Michael Dyer, the owner of Borana, has always had an interest in the welfare of his neighbours and has always been aware of the necessity to improve their welfare and basic standard of living.
He was involved in the foundation of the Laikipia Wildlife Forum, which started in 1996. The LWF was set up in order to conserve wildlife and its habitat outside of national parks, through education and the utilization of resources, the promotion of eco-tourism, the control of human/animal conflict and the prevention of further degradation to the rangeland of Laikipia.
The LWF has been very successful in joining together all the peoples of Laikipia - the cattle ranchers, the small-scale farmers and the pastoralists - as a single body to confront economic and social issues in the area as well as promoting conservation.
