Abstract: The current trend of utilization of the resources of Lake Naivasha poses serious threats to the fragile lake ecosystem and its biodiversity. The paper considers the dynamics of the changing lake ecosystem, imminent threats to, and the community-based approach towards the sustainable utilization of the lake. The sustainable use of the lake will not be fully realized without a sound management plan. There is a need to enact consolidated environmental legislation in Kenya, which will enable the strengthening of environmental conservation and the protection for sustainable utilization of natural resources.
