Community Member Economic Survey

Arizona State University, the Mara Guide Association, and the Maasai Education Research and Conservation institute are working to develop a local automotive education center to be ran and owned by the Maasai community. The school will offer education for members of the Maasai community to become certified mechanics. Those who obtain certification could obtain a job as a mechanic at the center, at a local lodge, or open their own garage.
