Tunapanda is a swahili word for Plant, Grow and climb to tech-world heights. It was a trainers and apprentices refresh in the nature as we study both nature and key features of empathy as instructors of www.tunapanda.org .
We stand for the why of Tunapanda Institute for instance bridging the digital divides in our society, Team trip mission is for all of the group to climb the volcano mountain in the great rift valley called Longonot or Olonongot which means in Maasai people a mountain of many ridges or valleys.
Our goal as we show to each other how empathy or feel for one another by helping and encouraging everyone to conquer up to 2776 metres above the sea level a total of 10.6 kms.
Second mission was to feel the nature by visiting one of Naivasha owls trust an organization that rescue and rehabilitate injured raptors and owls birds to end extinctions of endangered species. We all study how birds of prey be rescued and rehabilitated then finally released when they are fit and adaptable to the ecosystem.
We all enjoyed and now ready to teach more technology skills to our 4 cohort that soon recruited to the institute this month. Many thanks indeed for the management and the entire Tunapanda colleagues. Be bless as we all be optimistic of the future of humanity on planet earth.

Global march4elephants&Rhinos 2015

I am justice to wildlife, are you? Kenyans conservationists wake up to stand up and shout out for the threatening poaching menace to our magnificent and iconic Elephants and Rhinos globally. At this moment northern white Rhinos are toward extinctions only five survive on earth with no hope to multiply, Non of them can breed due to the only Sudan male in Olpejeta conservancy can no longer mate.

Every 15 minutes one Elephant is killed for the high demand of their ivory in the black market. Our animals our heritage our responsibility, Together we can end this extinction our hope while walking 14kms from Nairobi Museum to KWS headquarters Nairobi national park. We marched through the city to passed this message to the global leaders to quickly crash ivory and Rhinos horns market to secure our animals in our beautiful Savannah sceneries, where they deserve to enjoy their lives and multiply with no worries. I heard a nice spoken word from Mzee Nairuko from Narok county saying before formation of global march for these species, we as Maasai are the only conserving these animals, so my message to our Kenyans is to join us in this journey?
Many thanks indeed for all who participate for this march because we will never give up until we win the race.

Hot temperatures of 1100 degrees source from Gas and used engine oil burned 24 hrs non stop yearly.
After the fruits Bowl manufacturing process finished the glass takes 18 hrs to cool then ready to be used.
We are grateful for the visit to learn more about the industry of glasses which we usually thought are all imported to Kenya but now in a really sense Innovations in Tech-world Kenyans are contributing in their entrepreneurship work. Many thanks indeed to every one for a great day.
