Health & wellbeing workshops curated by Jukebox Collective for African communities in Wales
Jukebox Collective partners with SSAP for Jamii 2, curating a series of creative workshops around health and wellness for African communities in Cardiff.
These workshops will be open to all ages and engage with music, poetry, movement, and our relationship with nature and each other.
‘Jamii’ means community; our sense of togetherness and the mutual support and strength we draw from each other.
The approach of this project builds on the African concepts of ‘Ubuntu’ or ‘Harambee’. Both phrases embrace the concept of cooperation and working together as a community. This sense of community and collaboration extends from cultural and communal activities to economic, health and emotional support.
our partners
Sub-Sahara Advisory Panel (SSAP) was formed in 2009 when a number of African diaspora groups in Wales met to consider how they might collectively advance their common interest in local issues affecting African communities in Wales as well as those in Africa. They apply lived experience, skills, capacity and knowledge found within Welsh African diaspora communities.
