Kijana Cafe, a mobile 4-hour semi-recreational activity, where people come to bear witness and listen to youth state-of-the-art ideas/solutions. The event intends to fuse knowledge brokers and youth together in a the simplified setting, to expound ideas to fruition. But also, Kijana cafe features simple games, delicious bites, colourful and creative poetry performances all under our one roof, to vibrate the session. The project is championing intergenerational solutions.
It was (and to some part still is) an African tradition for elders to bear ideas and wisdom, to stand as the storyteller's, while the young people stood as their wide-eyed audience.That was the past, and this is the new era we are living, not of only stories of the past but of potential visions of the future. In the modern era of technology and innovation, youth can now be storytellers and invite the adults to listen.Young people who were short of ideas and visions decades ago, now bear high-end
Kijana Cafe is not a regular Cafe, it is a mobile cafe forged specifically for a purpose of attracting a selected group of invited individuals or organisations to bear witness to the Cafe "menu". The menu involves a peculiar slice of youth creative burning issues, opportunities, and outpouring relevant ideas. Each coin spent on a product, service offered, will fuel youths ongoing and future operations, to realise their ambitions You can be invited and join and fueling intergenerational solutions
From education, health, sports, and business, youth engrave creative actions, that are worth learning and sharing. In order to have inter-generational sustainable solutions. Youth have millions of stories to tell, yet each Cafe shall carry a unique theme depending on the issue championed, the respective time and location. This cafe is opening any opportunity for building a meaningful partnership between youth and their stakeholders. We amplifying young peoples voice about their life and future.
