THE SAND RIVER REGION: THE ROYAL AFRICAN FOUNDATION FUNDS STRATEGIC PROGRAMS TO PROTECT THE SAND RIVER'S MIGRATION ROUTES THAT LINK THE MARA, SERENGETTI, AND RIFT VALLEY ECOSYSTEMS. AMONG THE MOST BIODIVERSE AREAS ON EARTH, IT FACES GROWING THREATS FROM LAND SUBDIVISION AND UNPLANNED DEVELOPMENT, WHICH DISRUPT WILDLIFE MOVEMENT AND INCREASE HUMAN-WILDLIFE CONFLCIT. TO ADDRESS THIS, WE SUPPORT COMMUNITY EDUCATION, ENTERPRISE, HEALTH, AND HUMAN-WILDLIFE CONFLICT MITIGATION PROJECTS.
