In a nation where indigenous forests are dwindling, Mukogodo Forest stands resolute against the tide of human encroachment and deforestation. Its survival, a testament to the synergy between the local community and the forest, paints a heartening tale.

Standing in the arid and semi-arid are as of Isiolo and Laikipia counties, the forest spans over 30,000 hectares. A jewel in a parched land, it's a bastion against the ravages of climate change.
