The Ilchamus a sub-tribe to of the Masai are of a peaceful nature but do not usually mix with other tribes. They have their own dialect, their traditions and culture. They let alone the Pokot and the Turkana of which there are huge differences. As often happens, thanks to the project that helps their children create art for peace and biodiversity conservation, it teaches children to understand how we can live together, and know each other while taking as an added value their diversity.
We shall therefore establish, complete and manage the first school of peace within the Ilchamus village. It is a small art school painted with unifying tribal colours that will start with Art classes attended by thirty children. I think that Integration is easier if you start with Education and Culture.
The initiative shall embark on a series of cultural activities to promote peace as well as fight retrogressive cultural practices that hinder the education of children. Led by John Tilji Menjo, a Kenyan Art and Culture operator, the community-based cultural organization Eco-learning Cultural Center in Kabarnet is registered in Kenya to undertake collaborative projects and exchange between diverse cultures and to contribute to local, community participation in the Arts, bringing diverse artistic communities together.
Featuring the Rift Valley people, their culture, its environment, indigenous knowledge and science for education and peace. Achieving social transformation within Baringo County in Kenya through peaceful cultural interaction. To use Art and Cultural programs to foster peace and reconciliation among the varied and diverse cultural groups of Kenya. The organization collaborates with other National Museums of Kenya departments to fulfill the following objectives:.
The mix of political incitement, the fight for land and pasture, water, minerals and forests has created an endless war in the Northern Rift. The communities have been locked in conflict for close to 15 years now due to limited and varying natural resources. The project proposes that a return to cultural past to mitigate the effects of climate change in Kenya can help to achieve peace in the Rift Valley. John Tilji Menjo is the founding director of Eco-learning Cultural Center, a program in Kabarnet for helping kids in Kenya create art for conservation and tribal integration.
The project proposes to establish an arts and cultural center in Kabarnet Township in Kenya to enhance the application of indigenous knowledge for cultural and biodiversity conservation for development of peace. Before colonialism and globalisation, Kenyans lived in harmony with nature. Concerned about the climatic changes marked by reduced and unpredictable rainfall and the drying up of rivers, we have come together to look for solutions to save the planet Earth and its inhabitants.
For the past seven years Eco-learning Cultural Center, a community based cultural nonprofit organisation comprising elders, the custodians of sacred sites, seed savers, herbalists, hunters, beekeepers, children and youths in the North Rift Valley region have been seeking ways to save their environment from depletion through cultural practices.
The elders led by John Tilji Menjo have been recounting to the young generation what their territory was like before the advent of colonialism, globalization and climate change, and how they lived in harmony with nature.
Last year we documented our past and knowledge using eco-cultural maps and calendars. The maps also identify the present challenges and outline the vision for the future. However, public transport is scarce and infrequent.
