At the Mt. Elgon Stakeholders Forum (MESF), we are committed to the conservation of the Mt. Elgon ecosystem through collaborative efforts in environmental protection, wildlife conservation, and climate change mitigation. Our mission is to safeguard this unique biodiversity hotspot while supporting the communities that call it home.
We support ecosystem-based adaptation, forest restoration, and sustainable resource use.
Promoting awareness, habitat protection, and reducing human-wildlife conflict.
MESF has established climate change resource centers and advocates for local and national adaptation strategies.
Mt. Elgon, a majestic extinct volcano straddling the Uganda-Kenya border, rises to 4,321 meters and is home to the world’s largest mountain caldera. As one of Uganda’s six major national parks, it is an ecological treasure and a lifeline to over 3.5 million people through its rich biodiversity, critical water catchment, cultural heritage, and agricultural support.
"To promote inclusive, coordinated, and sustainable management of the Mt. Elgon landscape through stakeholder collaboration, policy advocacy, and capacity building for the conservation of natural resources and improved community livelihoods."
"A sustainably managed Mt. Elgon ecosystem where people and nature thrive in harmony."
I would love to volunteer with your organization because I share similar values in wanting to protect the environment, and I believe that focusing on reducing waste is a great place to start. I'm also looking forward to getting more involved with the local community and meeting.
