Lewa recently joined hands with the Linda Brown and Greg Family Foundation and The County Government of Meru - 012 to host our first-ever health outreach at Ntugi Market in Buuri East Constituency, attending to over 500 patients.

Led by Caleb Ayieko, our Healthcare Programme Coordinator, the medical team offered dental screening and extractions, optical screening and reading glasses, cervical and breast cancer screening, general consultations and treatment, laboratory services including blood sugar and voluntary HIV testing, weight and BMI monitoring, and pharmacy support, all under one roof.

We’re proud to stand with our partners in bringing essential health services closer to the people who need them most.

At Lewa, luxury is not an indulgence detached from its surroundings. It is part of a model of tourism designed to give back. 25% of tourism revenue flows directly into wildlife protection and community empowerment, supporting education, healthcare, women-led micro-enterprises and essential infrastructure.

This is regenerative tourism in action: a model where wildlife conservation and human wellbeing are deeply interconnected. As the landscape becomes more resilient, so do the communities that call it home.

As part of our community empowerment initiatives, Lewa-supported clinics across Leparua, Lewa, Ntirimiti, and Ngare Ndare provided essential medical care to 37,025 patients in 2025.

Healthcare is a fundamental human right and a core pillar of thriving communities. By advancing SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-Being), we continue to deliver maternal healthcare, emergency ambulance support, mobile outreach to remote areas, and school health screenings to ensure our neighbours have access to the care they need to live healthy, productive lives.

“As poachers get more sophisticated in their use of technology, we must always be a step ahead,” says John Pameri, Head of General Security at Lewa.

A single frame can tell a powerful story, and sometimes, that story can change a life.

Through the lens, we bring the global community closer to the heart of Lewa's mission: endangered wildlife, dedicated rangers, and the communities who share this land. Every photo helps secure a future where both people and nature thrive together.

Today, we celebrate the photographers who help us share Lewa's story and transform awareness into real action, one image at a time. Asanteni!

Did you know? The Lewa-Borana Landscape is home to a Key 1 Black rhino population, a distinction held by only a handful of rhino sanctuaries in East Africa.

So, what does “Key 1” mean? The IUCN African Rhino Specialist Group uses the designation to identify significant rhino populations that are stable or increasing. At Lewa, the major milestone came in 2019, when our 100th Black rhino calf was born.

Today, 144 Black rhinos call the landscape home, alongside 153 White rhinos, bringing the total to 297. Strong birth rates, low mortality and carefully managed translocations have helped build this population while supporting rhino recovery elsewhere in the region.

As we look forward to Rhino Day, we’re celebrating what decades of sustained conservation can achieve.

Identifying individual animals accurately and at scale has long been one of conservation’s most resource-intensive challenges.

Last year, Lewa advanced species monitoring using three cloud-based AI platforms: Zebra Wildbook catalogued 291 Grevy’s zebras by stripe patterns; GiraffeSpotter identified 165 reticulated giraffes to track calf survival; and ArgusWild AI processed camera-trap images to distinguish leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas.

Together, these tools are building a reliable, longitudinal database of species movement and identity that would be impossible to maintain manually, unlocking insights that will only grow more powerful over time.
