Ol
Pejeta
Conservancy
in
Kenya
The
Ol
Pejeta
Conservancy's
efforts
to
protect
rhinos
are
critical
to
the
survival
of
the
species.
Ol
Pejeta
is
the
Largest
Black
Rhino
Sanctuary
in
East
Africa
and
holds
14%
of
the
confirmed
black
rhino
population
in
Kenya.
The
constant
population
increase
we
are
witnessing
on
Ol
Pejeta
is
the
result
of
our
security
efforts.
We
happily
share
this
news
with
you.

The
African
Development
Bank
Group
(AfDB)
was
founded
in
1964,
and
its
mission
is
to
"promote
sustainable
economic
growth
and
reduce
poverty
in
Africa."
Their
website
is
extremely
thorough
in
discussing
its
guidelines
for
lending,
its
source
of
funds,
and
current
projects.
On
the
homepage,
in
the
middle
of
the
page
is
a
link
to
a
book
called
"Africa
Achieves",
and
it
contains
text
and
photos
about
people
and
communities
in
Africa
that
are
"taking
charge
of
their
destinies
and
improving
their
lives"
through
projects
financed
by
AfDB.
Visitors
can
click
on
"Download
Full
Report",
or
they
can
download
chapter
by
chapter
under
the
"Table
of
Content"
heading.
The
first
chapter,
on
the
consequences
of
living
without
electricity,
reveals
many
roadblocks
to
achieving
electrification
in
rural
areas.
In
the
"Selected
Projects"
link,
which
can
be
found
on
the
far
right
hand
side
of
the
homepage,
visitors
can
browse
projects,
or
search
for
them
by
"keyword",
"country",
"sector",
"status",
"finance
source"
or
"approval
date".
There
is
a
good
deal
of
information
on
this
website
that
is
worth
exploring.
