The Luo people are an ethnic group from the Luo Kenya and Tanzania, and science within this community can encompass traditional knowledge systems, modern scientific engagement, education, and practices as they relate to the Luo culture and society.

Traditional Luo science might include indigenous knowledge on agriculture, herbal medicine, veterinary practices, weather prediction, and natural resource management, passed down through generations. This knowledge has been crucial for the survival and cultural continuity of the Luo people.

In a modern context, science education and engagement in Luo could involve how contemporary scientific teachings and practices are integrated into the local educational systems, how they're received by the community, and how they intersect with traditional knowledge. This might include efforts to improve healthcare, agriculture, and environmental conservation through scientific methods while respecting cultural heritage.
