CULTURAL AND FARMING CENTER ADUNA’M
ADUNA’M was born from the initiative of two persons, Johanna Just and Issa Diallo, wishing to share their love of their homeland with the larger number of persons. They also want to make people comfortable and travel in an easier way in that remote area of Senegal.
In FoutaToro, because it is the most ancient populated territory of this area, we can still observe ancestral traditions and walk through traditional markets and villages where handicraft and farming works are still authentic.
Cultural and farming Center ADUNA’M is part of Saint Louis and Matam’s regions, north of Senegal. It is located in Medina N’Diathbe, a traditional Peul village in the FoutaToro, the river’s valley.
FoutaToro stretches from Dagana, North to Bakel, East (430kms/267miles) on the left bank of the river Senegal.
ADUNA’M is four hectares of land (almost ten acres), three of them dedicated to farming, aiming food self-sufficiency to the center.
