South Rift Association of Land Owners | Kenya

The South Rift Association of Land Owners (SORALO) is a formally registered Trust in Kenya that was created in 2004 in order to provide a legitimate body to represent the needs of land owners and push for joint management. Currently there are 15 group ranches covering an area of 800,000 hectares. These ranches form the bridge between the Amboseli and Maasai Mara National Reserves. SORALO was set up due to pressure that mounted up as a result of efforts made in Shompole and Olkiramatian for the escalation of tourism and conservation activities across a wider area in the south rift region. It is a community-based and community-driven initiative whose primary role is to bring land owners together for effective management of resources in order to directly improve livelihoods, network and assist in resource mobilisation for the development of the South Rift Valley region.
