The “Ontological Bridge-building for Climate Change Mitigation in Maasailand”
(A Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship) works collaboratively through the education and social structures of the North Central Diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Tanzania, with the blessing and support of Bishop Godson Abel.
The following lessons have been written by Maasai collaborative writers for review by the Maasai Stakeholders. Below are also lessons written by me, Beth Elness-Hanson, as a dialogue partner, to pass on information and resources that I have gleened from my previous years of reseach which can support the develop of the lessons by the writers (who are paid for their efforts).
The lessons below are DRAFTS, thus, they are not meant to be used in their current form. Later, revised lessons will be uploaded for use throughout the Maasai regions without cost. In addition, they can be adapted for other contexts without cost as part of the open access ethical standards for this research project.
The following lessons have been developed for the training of Maasai lay pastors at Oldoinyosambu Theological College. After reveiw by the Stakeholders, they will be adapted for use with women's groups.
