Strategic plan for the educational centre in Kathiruri, Kenya
6000m² of land was bought in Kathiruri village, Embu County in 2020.
The 500m² facility for the education centre and approx. 500m² of supporting walls (they are needed because of the steep slope) will be designed and built with the local experts and workers.
