Children on route to collect drinking water, Samburu, Kenya.

Dear Earthwatcher,

We very much hope you enjoy this, the latest instalment of eNews. It's packed with stories from the field, about our research, expeditions and events.

Be sure to read about a recent discovery by Earthwatch scientists which could offer improved access to safe drinking water and therefore reduced incidences of water-borne diseases in remote regions of Kenya like the Samburu.

And remember to put our 17 March lecture, Farming and Sustainable Environments, chaired by Countryfile presenter Julia Bradbury, in your diary. We hope to see you there...

Warm regards,

Nigel Winser
