Pauline is a lecturer and consultant in the field of animal health and production, her work in Northern Kenya exposed her to the challenges faced by nomadic children in accessing elementary education due to the competing trade-off that nomadic parents and children have to make between acquiring formal education through the school system and the fundamental informal learning about their own cultural, social and economic world. In this regard Pauline has partnered with Kusoma Tu to support the cause of finding solutions to offer basic literacy skills to nomadic children. Pauline will be involved in identifying strategic partners that will support Kusoma Tu vision of having functionally literate people in whichever societies they live in.
