Semerian Sankori on preserving Maasai heritage and land while advancing opportunities for women

  • Inhaltsangabe

  • Semerian, a Maasai woman, remembers her grandmother’s stories of a time when Maasai pastoralists roamed freely, before the post-colonial era brought sweeping changes to their ancient lifestyle. In this episode, Semerian shares some of the painful shifts Maasai have faced over the past few decades, and how they are working to preserve their rich and vibrant cultural heritage. Beyond these existential challenges, Semerian also highlights the specific obstacles Maasai women face, like early marriages and gender-based poverty, and how she's working to create meaningful change for Maasai women and girls.

    Why Give a Buck?
    Because with 2,000 USD, Semerian can supply 20 goats to a group of 20 Maasai women. This will allow the women to establish a herd that they can raise and breed helping them to achieve economic independence.
