Development-political work

In 2002, supported by the Pink/Rosa-Luxemburg-Foundation, a moving photo exhibition about the culture of the Rendille, "The Rendille - Dances, Trance and Body Decoration, Nomads in Kenya " opened, and was presented for the first time in May as a opening lecture in the Pink/Rosa-Luxemburg Foundation.
In the same year at the Andreas High School during their project days, it was issued in the gallery “Kliz” on the “2. World celebration” and at the “school for adult education” (SFE), also in the context of the project days.
The goal of the exhibition was to represent the life situation of the Rendille people from the north of Kenya, as well as SONED wants to show the local project work.
