Here in Kwale, about 15 of us young men and women from a local secondary school got together to make some videos and photos of our community. Our community is a rural one. We live near to a national park where elephants roam along with other animals. We have lots of palm trees and grow plenty of fruits and vegetables to eat. To do this project, we worked for a few weeks together with a few teachers and community members, discussing what the good things are in the community, and what things we'd like to change in our lives. We discussed our traditions and also many of the new things that are coming to pass in our lives as young people. Much of what we discussed is shown here. We hope you'll take a look around and tell us what you think! Do you also experience some of the challenges that we face?

 Visit the Village of Notto!  We invite you to explore our community through the short films and photos that we have made.

Here in Notto, a group of us worked for almost 3 weeks taking photos, making videos, and doing theater about the different aspects of our community.  We covered things that we are proud of as well as things that we want to change.

We've shown our work to the community leaders and our local politicians in order to help them better understand us.

We hope you will look at our work too and let us know what you think!
