KEY LOCATIONS AND ACTIVITIES:

ISLAND OF GORÉE Historically, this was where many slaves left their homelands for the unknown. When driving positive change, we must first understand both the origins of our shared humanity, and the critical events that have shaped a culture’s history.
TRAVELLING UPRIVER TO ZIGUINCHOR As we travel along the Casamance River, you will likely find the river’s dolphins bobbing their noses in the ferry’s wake, mere metres away. We will visit a local school and market in the community of Ziguinchor before travelling to Abéné.
EXPERIENCE LIFE IN ABÉNÉ Abéné lies nestled on the Atlantic coast, just twelve kilometres from the Gambian border. Around 5,000 people make their home here, in a melting pot of different religions, cultures, and tribes. Despite their differences, the people are united in their love of their village, their music, and their traditions. Ready to empower yourself and the people of Abéné?
