Inspired by Owiti Oguda's "The Luo Co-wives of Kenya: Using Resistance Resources to Achieve an Empowered Quality of Life"

At Munglu Eco Village Resort, sustainability is not a marketing concept-it is a lifestyle, a philosophy, and a commitment to balance between people, culture, and nature. In aligning business practice with the principles of healthy living, eco-tourism, environmental conservation, organic farming, cottage industry, real estate, cultural heritage, and spirituality, the Resort stands as a model of holistic development that respects both community and environment.

Owiti Oguda's The Luo Co-wives of Kenya offers a deep cultural lens that resonates with Munglu's mission. Though centered on Luo women navigating life within polygamous households, the text unveils universal lessons about resilience, empowerment, and sustainable coexistence-values that directly inform the Resort's operational philosophy.

Oguda's concept of resistance resources-faith, family, social bonds, and adaptability-mirrors Munglu Eco Village Resort's emphasis on balance and mindful living. The co-wives in Oguda's study sustain emotional and physical health through self-reliance and community cohesion, even amid constraints.
