Community Forest Associations ( CFAs) are crucial for reaching the goal of 30% tree cover, according to Environment Cabinet Secretary Deborah Barasa.

Speaking during a community awareness event at Saboti forest station in Trans Nzoia County, Barasa highlighted that CFAs serve as the vital link between local communities and sustainable forest management.

"Community Forest Associations are the means through which communities engage in the management, protection and conservation of forest resources in their areas," Barasa stated.
