The aim of the walk is to show how we, as human beings and Africans living across borders, share more commonalities than we do differences.

This is particularly relevant to the youth, who make up over 50% of Africa’s people. Using the softer platform of music is the ideal way to broach harder issues in a quest to find collaborative solutions to some of the big issues facing the continent.
