Karayu Debese Wariyo (20)

Karayour with Badadha in Yabelo

Newly-married Karayu is a member of the Boran and lives 60km from Mega town, the capital of Dirre. He walks 12 hours once a week into the town to recharge his camera batteries.

“I want to show the problems we have with resources but also how our communities work together and are strong together and help each other”

Karayu attended school until he was ten, but his family needed him to help with the livestock, so he allowed his younger brother to have an education instead – and he is now attending a government school in Yabelo.
