“We must secure Samburu land for the next generation.”
This is not merely a fight for land but a fight for the future. We must secure Samburu land for the next generation.
Community land is my land, my people. Samburu tribes have a deep-rooted connection with the land they have lived on for generations. We tend to our herds in seasonal pastures and consider community land our land.
Having land means settling, building, and progressing. Not having land is not good because it means not having a place to live, farm, care for children and livestock, or do other essential activities. Land enables the community to progress.
As a nomadic pastoralist community, the Samburu people face the challenge of securing land rights for the next generation. With a growing population, ensuring enough land for future generations to call home is needed.
It’s important to care for the wild and the forests. Indigenous people have always cared for the land and know how to heal it, especially during climate change.
Land rights and preservation are about the present, honoring the past, and protecting a future where pastoral communities can flourish on the land they call home.
