The Suguta Valley is found in Turkana County, Kenya. The Suguta River snakes its way down this spectacular part of the Rift Valley and the valley is an incredible and varied semi-arid landscape of craters, plains, salt lakes, dunes and lava flows running to the southern shores of Lake Turkana. It is matched by equally diverse fauna and flora. The Suguta Valley as an ecosystem is nationally important to Kenya, if not globally. Yet this unique landscape is sadly more known for its insecurity and ethnic conflict between the Turkana, Samburu and Pokot than for its diverse natural resources, wilderness and beauty. Yet its potential to benefit and sustain the livelihoods and welfare of its local pastoralist communities remains untapped.
