Waba means water. • And for Selina Nkoile, waba is more than water - it's education and empowerment of girls and women. • This documentary by Ugandan filmmaker and musician A F R I E tells the inspiring story of Selina Nkoile, a Maasai woman who defied all odds to become a beacon of hope for her drought-stricken community in Kenya. • Her mother, an uneducated woman, broke cultural barriers by purchasing land and fighting to educate her daughter in a society where girls were typically married off as early as 13. • After her mother’s death, Selina inherited the land and transformed it into a permaculture farm, providing food and support for Maasai women and children during the worst drought in over four decades. • The documentary highlights the power of education in transforming lives and communities, showing how one woman’s courageous stand against tradition gave rise to another’s leadership in times of crisis. • Waba is a tribute to the enduring legacy of mothers, the importance of education for girls, and the role of women in building sustainable futures. • • Follow Afrie: • Instagram - / afriecangal • X/Twitter - / afriecangal • Follow the Global Partnership for Education: • Instagram - / gpforeducation • X/Twitter - / gpforeducation • LinkedIn - / global-partnership-for-education-world-bank • #DayOfTheGirl #FundEducation #TransformingEducation #Kenya #Maasai
