Pastoralists in Transition

NAIROBI, KENYA, FEBRRUARY 2010: Urban pastoralist Maasai at Wilson Manyatta, close to Wilson airport, who originally moved to Nairobi 20 years ago from Kajiato district for better grazing and rainfall, Nairobi, Kenya, 26 February 2010. These urban Maasai are experiencing ever increasing land pressure as Nairobi becomes a thriving metropolis where land is more and more valuable. Due to their pastoralist nomadic lifestyle, these Maasai have little claim to land unless they fence it and place permanent structures on the land. Even so, government planning, voracious business models for development and no real political representation mean these Maasai are permanently under threat of removal.
