In the tourism sector, the team visited the Eldoret Animal Sanctuary at The Poa Place, exploring its potential as a recreational and tourism attraction. The visit highlighted opportunities to promote wildlife conservation, diversify the county’s tourism products and strengthen partnerships in nature-based tourism.

The engagements formed part of the broader efforts to strengthen ties between Uasin Gishu County and Polish partners, opening avenues for knowledge exchange, technology transfer and investment across agriculture, manufacturing, education and tourism.
