The secretariat runs KWCA day to day, delivering our programmes, policy and advocacy, communications, finance and operations on behalf of member conservancies.
The Executive Committee is KWCA's board. It oversees management, programme supervision and fundraising, bringing together the officials of the National Conservancies Council and independent members.
The National Conservancies Council is made up of elected representatives from all 12 landscape associations. It decides on membership matters and sets the direction of the conservancy movement nationally.
Our members and primary beneficiaries are the private and community conservancies that make up our membership. It is their voice and interests we listen to and serve.
Our governance structure is two-tier, designed to promote transparency and accountability in how the network is managed.
The assembly of elected representatives from all 12 landscapes. It decides on substantive matters related to KWCA membership and acts as the link between KWCA and conservancies.
Makes decisions on management, programme supervision and fundraising. It is made up of the NCC officials, the Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary and Treasurer, alongside three independent technical experts.
Non-governing actors in the structure, yet a vital link between KWCA and the conservancies in the landscapes where they operate.
We're always looking for people who share our commitment to community-led conservation. See our current openings and how to apply.
