. Kenya Devolves Amboseli National Park to Kajiado County
After years of advocacy, the Kenyan government transferred control of Amboseli National Park to Kajiado County in August 2025. The move aims to redirect tourism revenue—estimated at KSh 1.4 billion (~US $11 million) from gate fees alone—to benefit the local Maasai communities, while fostering better integration between conservation and pastoral livelihoods.
