Manlio Trovato and Canon Pat Browne travelled to Turkana in November 2024 and shared the diary of their trip on the ICN website.
The diary begins:
Imagine the place most different to the one we are accustomed to: that’s Turkana, the remotest and poorest area of Kenya. Think of the things we take for granted: water, food, electricity, a home with a bed, a toilet, a kitchen, hospitals, schools, roads, shops. In Turkana, these basics are absent, or at least, in the way we know them. It’s not just society that’s different; the people are different too, and, as surprising as it may sound, I believe they are better. Let me tell you why.
