The Forester Magazine

Biannual Forestry Magazine of the Kenya Forest Service

Welcome to the latest edition of our biannual forestry magazine.

As we reflect on the past six months, we’re proud to share the significant strides made in Kenya’s forestry sector. In this issue, we spotlight several key events and initiatives that underscore our commitment to sustainable forest management and conservation.

Our lead story covers the launch of the Kenya Forest Service Strategic Plan, a roadmap that will guide our efforts in the coming years to enhance forest cover and promote sustainable utilization of forest resources.

We also bring you highlights from the International Day of Forests celebrations, where we joined the global community in recognizing the vital role forests play in our lives and ecosystems. Additionally, you’ll find coverage of our National Tree Growing Day, an initiative that saw thousands of Kenyans come together to green our nation.

This edition also features news on various Memoranda of Understanding signed with partner organizations, strengthening our collaborative efforts in forest conservation and management.

These stories reflect our ongoing dedication to Kenya’s forests and the communities that depend on them. We hope this issue informs and inspires you to join us in our mission to protect and nurture our precious forest resources.

Happy reading!
