The education center at Tamesna will open in October. Education is a key to sustainability, and the Nomad Foundation’s goal is that all projects be self-sustaining. The education center is equipped for visiting professionals to teach skills the nomads want and need. Already underway are training programs to improve their health care and fabricate and install solar panels. Future plans include well drilling, marketing their handicrafts, literacy, herd management and agricultural skills. Children who lack schools in their own encampments will be introduced here to educational programs which will evolve over time into a nomadic boarding school. The foundation is deeply grateful to the Great Escape Foundation for a generous grant that made possible the construction of this education center.
