Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 06:56:17 -0700

In 1996, Luca Belpietro and Antonella Bonomi created the pioneer eco-tourism lodge, Campi ya Kanzi, in front of majestic Kiliamanjaro in the pristine Chyulu Hills ecosystem of Kenya. They began the business of Campi ya Kanzi not with personal financial gain in mind, but with the objective of using profits from sustainable tourism to protect and preserve the local ecosystem and to sustain the traditional culture of the Maasai people. They now manage 280,000 acres of Maasailand on behalf of and jointly with the Maasai people who own this land, known as Kuku Group Ranch. Realizing that they would need assistance in order to achieve and sustain their goals for environmental protection, in 2000, they created the Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust (MWCT).
