The woman I will be working with in Kenya, Shivani Bhalla, has done amazing work there. One of the greatest things she has done is involve the Maasai warriors in conservation work. The warriors work with her to enable lions and people to occupy the same land. Here is a short clip of a speech she gave recently at the California Academy of Science about this part of her work.
The entire speech she gave is available on YouTube and in it, one of the warriors also talks.
Here is another short clip of the speech Shivani gave when she won a Whitley award (given for wildlife conservation.) It’s a good summary of her work.
I am really looking forward to meeting Shivani and learning more about what she does.
This is so exciting!
