UPCOMING EVENTS

Le lever du soleil en Afrique de l'Ouest
Intercultural Exchange Trip - March 2026

Path to the Root Intercultural Exchange is organizing Soul Journ 2026 to strengthen the bridge between Africans of the Diaspora and Africans living in the Motherland. The bridgebuilding work aims at reconnecting Afro-descendants to the root, to the history, and to the culture of West African people, civilization, and societies.  This 10-day stay in Danxome, current known as  Republic of Benin, will allow participants to learn the history of the Ma’afa from a different angle. Soul Journ 2026 will expose participants to West African spirituality and culture. It will also be great vacation time.
