Safaricom Marathon

I am incredibly excited, and nervous, about running the Safaricom Marathon this weekend.  It will be my first time to partake in this race, and I hope I will survive!  Tusk is doing a fantastic job and have been a great help to our small Nomad Trust.  Thank you! 

The Nature Conservancy

I had the chance to sit down with Matt Brown, who is the Africa Director of Conservation Science with The Nature Conservancy, about a week ago to talk about the exciting possibility of working together in the greater Mahale ecosystem.  The Nature Conservancy is currently partnered with Pathfinder International to integrate conservation and human health, there is a great piece on their blog-take a look to find out more about the great work they are doing in Tanzania.

Gates Project-Ololosokwan Primary School

We have finally managed to get all 18 new laptops, solar panel, panel stands, batteries etc to Ololosokwan school for phase two of the Gates Project.  I am now waiting to get a technician up to the school to set up their solar and get the new computer room up and running.  It is very exciting for the school.
