The Legend of the enchanted Forest is a folktale of the Maasai tribe in Kenya. The original version is known as The Lost Child, which is a story about a girl who gets lost inside the mysterious Loita Forest in the Great Rift Valley. It was used as a warning for children to not wander too far into the forest alone. This version reimagines a slightly different message, and challenges children to learn about the biodiversity of the natural landscape around them, and introduces such values as caring, hard work and determination to find solutions to problems affecting our immediate communities. This story is aligned with the UN SDG4, which endeavors to "Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all" and compliments SDG15, which calls all world citizens to "Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss". This story is an ode to the value of indigenous wisdom and traditional knowledge, which we believe needs to be taught in all schools everywhere.
