Bongo Camping and Swahili

In Tukuyu, Swahili is becoming a mother tongue for the new generations, just like it is happening in the rest of Tanzania and in other countries of East Africa. Swahili is also one of the most important ways to make our co-operation in Africa equal and participation-based.

Bongodox deadline

Since February this year our Danish volunteer Katrine Brücker has been writing short up-dates from our present development project Bongodox at the following address: http://www.bongodox.com/

The deadline for this project is June 2010. We hope that the good work can be well completed, so that its results will inspire both local inhabitants and visitors at the campsite to take part in further development.

Among the challenges that Bongodox has so far contributed to are economic poverty, youth unemployment and too many AIDS-related deaths. Bongodox has been trying to consolidate alternative trends through an equality and participation-based initiative between our Danish and Tanzanian organisations.

At the same time, Bongo Camping´s art group Kisamakibo has been contributing their creative spirit to Bongodox. Kisamakibo as well as the Bongodox team hope to be able to exchange their experiences with many visitors at Bongo Camping this year.

Bongo Camping May 2010

Tukuyu town 2010 in the Southern Highlands of Tanzania integrates still more with global technology, and Bongo Camping takes great part in this development. It´s fantastic to observe how media science is sprouting at this development platform founded by BDT and Kumbe in 2007 at Kibisi Village. Things are happening not least due to Katrine Brücker´s reserves of energy - our Danish woman who co-operates with the local civil society group Kikundi cha Utalii Mbeya about the video project Bongodox, a project to fight aids. Also many smaller initiatives turn up around Bongodox - students´ homework nights at the camp, plans for world cup social happenings, music recordings and more - and these activities continue making the creative spiral growing at the development platform Bongo Camping.
