"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee of Land, Environment, and Natural Resources on a matter of national concern, namely, the status of housing facilities for forest rangers under the Kenya Forest Service (KFS). Forest rangers play a vital role in protecting forests, which are essential for biodiversity, water catchment, climate regulation and the livelihoods of millions of people. Despite this, their welfare, especially housing, remains severely overlooked. Many rangers live in unsafe and unsanitary conditions without basic amenities. Some are even forced to stay in makeshift shelters or tents near forest outposts. Supporting forest conservation requires investing in decent, sustainable housing for rangers, as it is both a welfare issue and a matter of national and environmental security. In the Statement, the Committee should address the following- (i) the current state of the housing infrastructure for forest rangers at all Kenya Forest Service stations and outposts across the country; (ii) the measures that the Kenya Forest Service has taken to assess, maintain, or upgrade existing housing facilities for its personnel; (iii) plans for the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change, and Forestry to invest in sustainable, safe, and decent housing for forest rangers, including through public-private partnerships, and indicate any projected timelines for implementing these improvements; and, (iv) budgetary allocations and policy frameworks in place to support the long- term welfare of forest rangers, particularly in relation to their living conditions. I thank you."

The event took place within the precincts of Parliament at the Kenyatta International Conference Centre (KICC). Mr. Speaker, Sir, this dialogue was a deliberate and strategic intervention designed to bridge the persistent gap between youth-led civic action and formal policymaking, Members of County Assemblies, student leaders, and civil societies actors alongside international delegates from over 10 countries. I wish to specifically acknowledge the presence of distinguished young parliamentarians from across the globe who made significant contributions to the deliberations- (i) Hon. Augusta Nadi"
