Opis

Body adornment can safely be used as a silent way of non-verbal communication.This proposition has a direct relevance for nomadic pastoralists such as the Samburu, who draw attention to the significance of personal adornment. All Kenyans must help to promote our traditional forms of adornment to assist in creating that image for ourselves as 'proudly Kenyans' and provide employment opportunities for our people.
