We present OHANA SWIMWEAR S21: The Safari Campaign. Ohana Swimwear presents its S21 collection: SAFARI. The Safari Collection represents Mama Africa’s Royal Bloodline. The story is meant to capture a journey of self-discovery through the different animal prints. It’s a celebratory display of Kenya Wildlife Service efforts to protect and conserve our beautiful wildlife. This great initiative took place at Nairobi National Park and Stedmak Gardens Karen with the intention of putting our parks on the map for domestic and international tourism holiday makers through our designs inspired by Kenya’s rich wildlife heritage.
The Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) conserves and manages Kenya’s wildlife for the Kenyan people and the world.
It is a state corporation that was established by an Act of Parliament (Cap 376), now repealed by WCMA (2013), with the mandate to conserve and manage wildlife in Kenya, and to enforce related laws and regulations.
KWS undertakes conservation and management of wildlife resources across all protected areas systems in collaboration with stakeholders. It is their goal to work with others to conserve, protect and sustainably manage wildlife resources. The community wildlife program of KWS in collaboration with others encourages biodiversity conservation by communities living on land essential to wildlife, such as wildlife corridors and dispersal lands outside parks and reserves. The premise is that ” if people benefit from wildlife and other natural resources, then they will take care of these resources.”
KWS manages about 8 per cent of the total landmass of the country. This land contains 23 National Parks, 28 National Reserves and 4 National Sanctuaries. Also under KWS management are 4 Marine National Parks and 6 Marine National Reserves at the Coast. In addition, KWS manages 125 field stations outside protected areas.
