Let us aim for indigenous knowledge enterprise for our groups

-: Good morning family. I suggest that the already existing groups within Saniaga should engage in income generating ventures like basketry, pottery etc. This is just a suggestion. See what I have posted above.

-: That's a very noble idea and in the right direction.

Our people need to be empowered and become economically viable.

It's through such groupings that will make us strong and realize our potential in different fields.(Uvurara).

That said........can we look for/or is their ready Market for the finished goods?

My late Mother together with the late Mrs. Luvai engaged mostly Saniaga women in making "Izingata" at Chango Women's Society and that alone changed the lives of the members.

I support you Umkana msaniaga.

-: Beautiful. 

Ideas around indigenous knowledge are the ones Saniaga will push for in the groups. Not necessarily 'big dreams and projects.'

Basketry is one. Pottery another. Farming too. Name them. 

-/We can do this.

-: Art work

-: The Chango one be rebranded under Saniaga umbrella. They can do laundry baskets, tablemats & doormats using makora which they can improve by adding cloth or wool for durability. They can also do other indigenous project. This can be replicated in other Saniaga groups & markets found rather than use middle people.

-: Zingata should continue plus all manner of beautiful items made from amakora.

-: I hope Prof Sande will be celebrated. When medals are given to a githeri eating man and Kenyans who have impacted on so many lives then you begin to wonder if our country doesn't care for her genuine heroes.

-: We are on track. Please build on this idea, senge. The forum is there to take the challenge. And the market too. Saniaga are business people hata na kule ng'ambo, we can directly export.

-: Thanks for the good work, I now know our roots.
