INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIPS
Tourism Partners, Landowners & the Conservancy
MNC is a partnership between 12 Tourism Partners and 767 landowners. Each of these TPs pays a monthly fee per bed to MNC to assist with operational management and cater for the lease fees paid to landowners. The conservancy through subsequently elected board members ensures the conservancy model is followed to the letter and that the local community’s economic & social needs are met while at the same time conserving the exceptional biodiversity of the Mara ecosystem.
Conservancy Herd Mobile Bomas
MNC in partnership with landowner committees, and other tourism partners, works to maintain the conservancy herd with the landowners, building mobile bomas that are predator-proof, to ensure landowners’ cattle are well protected from livestock predation. These Bomas are also well looked after to curb the spread of diseases within the herds and within the communities’ cattle ensuring healthy herds to support the Maasai communities’ culture & lifestyle.
