March 2017: Ecofinder Kenya is a non-governmental organization which works towards empowering grass root communities through holistic approaches in order to make them realize their potential and attain local sustainable development and environmental conservation. Our work involves capacity and skill building of community members towards the development of green enterprises and alternative livelihood sources so as to reduce pressures of over utilization of natural resources and encroachment into natural ecosystems like the wetlands. -Please click here for details

Lake Victoria is the largest lake in Africa, the source of the River Nile, and the main fresh water supply of 10’s of millions of people, is under severe environmental pressures. For this reason Sandwatch is pleased to expand the project into the field of fresh water ecology.
Hello Everyone.
We at Kisumu Day High school in Kenya are happy to have been accepted into the Sandwatch family. We began an Environment and Conservation club after seeing the environmental degradation of Lake Victoria.
The Lake Victoria clean up is our pet project where we are sensitizing the youth and the general public to become environmentally aware by producing less waste through practicing the credo of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Buy products that are; less toxic, contain less packaging and are in reusable containers. Maintain and repair products rather than throwing them out on the Lake Shores,
When we read the Sandwatch manual, aims and objectives, we knew at once that joining it would link us to schools, teachers, and students who are like minded with us. Sandwatch will also provide us with the opportunity to share our data, observations, photos and ideas with other Sandwatchers.
The Sandwatch Project is now our window to the environmental world. We shall keep all of you updated through the official Sandwatch website of our concerns and thoughts of keeping the beaches of Lake Victoria clean and safe. We are now your latest Sandwatch family.
The Sandwatcher of Kisumu Day High School have written a lot about their environmental activities...
1. Sandwatch and sanitation on Lake Victoria
2. What becomes dirtier as it cleans?
3. Lake Victoria Fish are dissappearing
