Esther Lokala represents the Kapedo Women's Group. This group of Turkana women harvest the local grasses in season and weave baskets of every shape and size. The proceeds of their labor are sold to support their families and pay school fees for their children. Many of them like Esther are single parents. Esther lost her husband in the tribal clashes of 1985. Since then she has fought drought and poverty to feed and educate her children. |
