Karama: a school for 250 Bozo kids in Mali
Organization information
Karama Mali
Location: Bamako, Mali
Summary
Bozo fishermen use "karama" to mean "respect": for the people, for the river, for their roots and traditions. With this spirit, Karama looks at the Bozo of Bamako which are strongly stigmatized and isolated by the local society due to their poor living conditions on banks of the Niger river. Through schooling, the project aims at giving the opportunity to younger generations to compose their own future and apprehend the situation of their community with positivity, ambition and confidence.
