Journey Home Festival | Saqar & Den Tut
Manage episode 359030293 series 3461083
I spoke to two key people who run the Journey Home Festival, Saqar Ahhah Ahershu and Den Tut Rayay. We went into detail about the festival's intentions and what they hope to achieve.
They told me that the objective is to bridge the gap between African Americans, African Caribbean, and African Europeans to travel to West Africa, specifically Liberia.
They spoke to me about the purpose of the festival. The journey is not only to tour the cultural sites and beauty of Liberia but also to create sustainable economic actions, both for-profit and non-profit, on the ground by this group of Africans in the Diaspora that will create jobs.
What they would like is for the Journey Home Festival to achieve these goals by engaging entrepreneurs, profitable businesses, Ministers, Senators, Super-Intendents, NGOs, INGOs, Non-profits and charitable organisations in the Education, Law, Real Estate, transportation and Agricultural sectors to foster relationships with their Investors and Philanthropists on the ground in Liberia.
