Project excursions in Rwanda - Dancing Pots
The
‘Dancing Pots’ experience offers visitors a unique opportunity to learn about
and interact with a community of settled and forward-looking Batwa – or
‘historically marginalized people’ in the words of the government of Rwanda.
Located close to Gisenyi, the members of Abatigayubuke are harnessing their
famous traditional skills of pottery and performing arts to make a living and to
serve as an exemplary Batwa community that is fully integrated in the area’s
social life and structures. |
