Admedia Communications led the full facilitation of the BIODEV2030 Kenya Legacy Workshop, a two-day gathering held on 14 and 15 May 2026 at Sarova Stanley Hotel in Nairobi. Convened by IUCN in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change and Forestry, the event marked the project’s conclusion by celebrating achievements, reflecting on lessons learned and charting a path forward for biodiversity mainstreaming in Kenya.
Over 50 stakeholders took part, drawn from national and county governments, civil society, indigenous peoples, youth networks, the private sector, financial institutions, academia and development partners. The workshop aimed to consolidate BIODEV2030 Phase 2 outcomes, advance the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and embed biodiversity policy priorities into key sectors such as horticulture, livestock production and agroforestry, including through focused policy discussions on the Draft Charcoal Regulations 2025, while building lasting partnerships beyond the project’s May 2026 close.
Admedia delivered the complete scope of services, including pre-event planning and design with a refined agenda, detailed facilitation plan and interactive materials; on-site facilitation of all plenary sessions, breakout discussions and group work to ensure inclusive, results-focused dialogue; comprehensive documentation through professional photography and videography; and post-event synthesis into a full workshop report and a highlight video capturing key moments and participant insights. Through creative facilitation, the gathering produced clear forward momentum. Stakeholders identified new financing opportunities for landscape-level investments, developed a sustainability roadmap with concrete recommendations for policy uptake and scaling, and strengthened cross-sector commitments to carry BIODEV2030’s legacy into Kenya’s long-term national biodiversity strategies and ongoing conservation efforts.
