Where Change is Happening
Culture Clubs & Experiential Learning
Culture Clubs are platforms where young people learn directly from elders through experiential activities that promote identity, cultural pride, and intergenerational knowledge transfer.
These clubs nurture visionary youth who are culturally grounded, socially responsible, and aware of their heritage and environment.
Children’s Cultural Festival
A joyful platform where children perform songs, recite poems, and share stories in their native languages—reviving Indigenous knowledge and celebrating cultural identity through young voices.
This festival nurtures future custodians of culture by engaging children in traditional games, art, and intergenerational exchanges that strengthen pride in their roots.
Cultural Food and Music Festival
A lively showcase of Northern Kenya’s culinary traditions and musical heritage, bringing communities together to celebrate flavors, rhythms, and shared values.
More than a feast, this festival is a cultural expression—honoring ancestral recipes, indigenous instruments, and the communal spirit that defines pastoralist life.
