About this award

This federal contract award is a grant for $641,280.00 to the Smithsonian Institution, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects, to develop an ecological toolbox to inform livestock grazing allotments across wildlife conservancies in Kenya. The project will involve working with partners and conservancy managers in the Greater Mara Ecosystem to collect and analyze data on large herbivore abundance, water availability, and vegetation. The goal is to provide a user-friendly platform for conservancy managers to evaluate the impact of different management scenarios and environmental conditions on wild herbivore populations. The grant does not have a set-aside designation and is funded by a civilian federal agency, likely the Shared Services Center. This award leverages the Smithsonian's expertise in scientific research, conservation, and technology development to support integrated protected area management decisions in Kenya.
