Sajila Pamita is a Masai from Mukogodo east ward in Laikipia north constituency and a graduate form the University of Nairobi with a degree in bachelor of arts. She is driven by passion of touching lives and doing small things with great love for indigenous communities of northern Kenya .

She joined IMPACT in March 2021 as an Environmental research fellow. She had previously worked with African Educational Trust in Laikipia which dealt with education for children in marginalized communities. Her passion, past experiences and exposure into community work drew her into applying for the Research fellow position where she would enjoy interacting and engaging with pastoral communities and identify the challenges they face. This too is a learning curve on the cultural aspects of her community that she did not know.
