Despite being from vastly different cultures, my fellow colleagues and I successfully cultivated a respectful and comfortable environment to engage youth in healthy, open discussions and offer advice and support on controversial issues such as tribal conflicts between the Samburu and Turkana, the rights and role of the girl child, child marriage, and female circumcision. I championed particularly for girls’ right to secondary education—which is not widely practiced—and its community development benefits and, resultingly, empowered a group of young women to stand up for theirs. We also led children in sports and leisure activities, and acted as mentors on everyday issues.
