Who they are
The Rendille are nomadic pastoralists who inhabit the arid lands of northern Kenya. Known for their deep connection to camels, which are essential animals for sustenance and transport in the desert, they preserve ancestral customs and a strong community organization based on clans. Amidst the challenging climate, they keep their language and rich oral traditions alive.
