The Meru Technical Training Institute is one of the bigger training institutes in the Meru region and provides students with real world technical schools that can be applied to jobs in the area after graduation. Yesterday we were given the opportunity to tour the school and briefly teach a multimedia class to a group of students. Initially we were surprised to learn that the school not only grows a large portion of the food served to the students in the campus dorms, but also recycles all waste for compost in a sustainable system! This was excellent news and left us questioning why more of these sustainable on location systems are not implemented more at home.

After our tour we enjoyed a delicious lunch and Brandon presented to the students about multi media and graphic design. The students were fascinated my the presentation and curious about our experience and film equipment; conversations flourished long after the presentation into the evening until the administration met again for a wrap up meeting and tea.
If a picture is worth a thousands words it will take a documentary to explain all this! A special thanks to the institute for their hospitality and kindness.
