  • Born into the Samburu tribe of northern Kenya, Tom Lalampaa could have ended up following the traditional pastoral lifestyle of his people – had his brother made a different choice. When Tom was a child, his father called his sons to him and said, “I’d like one of you to go to school and the other to remain here and help take care of the cattle.” The decision fell to Tom’s brother, as the eldest. He opted for the cattle, and Tom was sent to school. Ultimately – with the support of the entire community – he went on to complete a BA in social work and an MBA in strategic management at the University of Nairobi. His brother’s choice wound up changing not only Tom’s life but also that of the Samburu community and the land they call home. As community development manager for the Northern Rangelands Trust (NRT), Tom is now a key player in efforts to protect Kenyan wildlife and improve the lives of his people and others who inhabit this beautiful but often unforgiving place.The Lewa Wildlife Conservancy serves as a refuge for e(Photo by Ami Vitale)

  • A mother gives her child some water during a break while she works  in a garden that Oxfam supported in the village of Intedeyne March 14, 2007. In this arid landscape, it requires a lot of work to maintain any kind of agriculture but it is one of the projects along with  education that Oxfam is supporting here.  Mali has the highest percentage of people living below the poverty line in any country in the world. Ninety percent of Malians survive on less than two dollars a day. In 2000, following the international commitments on education, the Government of Mali created a ten year education development program and as a result, donars provided two and a half times more aid to basic education. As a result, more than 6 out of 10 primary school age children are now enrolled in Mali. Yet the challenge to educate still exists and particularly for girls. Female literacy rates never reach even 50 percent of male literacy rates.Eight of the world's ten countries farthest from the gender parity goal are in West Africa: Niger, Chad, Burkina Faso, Mali, Ivory Coast, Guinea-Bissau, Benin and Guinea.
