Abstract: This management plan has been developed in accordance with the KWS Protected Area Planning Framework (PAPF), which is the management planning standard for Kenya’s wildlife protected areas. The PAPF aims to ensure that Protected Area (PA) management plans are developed according to a common process, and that the final plans produced have a similar structure. To ensure the management plans produced are both realistic and appropriate, and to build wider stakeholder understanding and support for implementation, the PAPF planning process incorporates a high level of stakeholder participation. The structure of the management plan itself has also been designed to maximise ease of implementation by PA managers, which is achieved through application of the “Logical Framework Approach” in the plan’s management programmes, and the development of “3-year Activity Plans” that provide the link between the 10-year vision and components of the plan to the annual work planning carried out by the Protected Area (PA) managers responsible for plan implementation. At the heart of the plan are the zonation scheme and the plan’s four management programmes. These programmes are: Ecological Management Programme Tourism Development and Management Programme Community Partnership and Conservation Education Management Programme Protected Area Operations and Security management Programme
