Climate change is severely affecting the weather patterns thus raising concerns for livelihoods, socio-economic and environmental sustainability. The Maasai Mara ecosystem is experiencing unprecedented changes associated with climate change. Owing to changes in seasonal cycles, the  Maasai pastoralists in recent years have experienced the full impact of prolonged droughts leading to drying of water sources, poor crop yields and livestock losses, all resulting in food insecurity. Solutions to environmental issues stem from a number of policies that have been initiated by the Government of Kenya assisted by international stakeholders. Indigenous people are used to large proportions of land surface per head of the population; there is a strong correlation between the location of indigenous territories and areas with highest biodiversity and natural resource conservation.
