What People Say About Us
testimony

“I went to Kenya to discover the culture and to work in food science. Both of these were completely new to me. Now, I know that I want to continue working in food science because what I discovered at DEKUT was so incredible that it made me want to pursue this field further. The culture and the people I encountered were the best part of my journey. Everyone in Kenya speaks at least three languages: English, Kiswahili, and their mother tongue, inherited from their tribe. ”
