The Upper Tana-Nairobi Water Fund, a charitable trust in Kenya, operates in the Tana watershed. The project engages local communities in conservation, particularly through the promotion of agroforestry and tree growing for carbon sequestration. This generates carbon credits validated and managed under the Plan Vivo Standard. The water fund is working with tens of thousands of farmers across four counties - Laikipia, Nyeri, Murang’a, and Nyandarua, conserving over 330,000 hectares of land and sequestering millions of tonnes of carbon (removal). The trees planted are designed to provide long-term cover, reduce soil erosion, and provide livelihood benefits to communities. This complements the Trust’s biodiversity conservation work.
