Elderly people in three North-Rift districts have launched an environmental conservation programme. Through the support from the Kenya Elderly People Organisation (Kepo) and the Eldoret-based Centre for Human Rights and Democracy, the elderly are expected to keep themselves busy by being involved in environmental conservation matters. "The elderly people from Uasin Gishu, North Nandi and South Nandi districts have formed the Mwangaza Elders Community based organisation to achieve this goal," said Mr David Koros, an official from the rights group.
