Simultaneous Interpretation

English will be the official language of the 2019 EO Kenya Exploration. We will not have the technological resources to offer simultaneous interpretation due to environmental conditions and the mobile format of the program. Please be advised that important safety precautions given during game drives and on overnight stays in the bush will only be communicated in English, so it is recommended that attendees have a general understanding of the English language for their own safety.
