The SOUL & DNA of Conservation with Ian Craig

In this episode, I’m talking with Ian Craig, a great man I consider to be the pioneer of community conservation in Africa. Ian has helped founded both Lewa Wildlife Conservancy and Northern Rangelands Trust and is currently serving as the Chief Partnership, Growth & Innovation Officer for NRT. We talk through how he got started in conservation, what drives this big passion he has for wildlife and also how wildlife is contributing to a better life for local communities in the Northern part of Kenya. We also dig deep into the community conservation model, it’s success under the flagship organizations Ian founded, carbon revenues and how we can unlock local funding and also bandirty in the Northern Kenya and what we can do to put an end to this. Enjoy💚
