AfricaGriot is a voluntary association based in Florence. Active in international cooperation with particular interest to the field of education, carries out projects in West Africa by supporting social initiatives promoted by local groups and organizations in Mali and Burkina Faso. The spirit that animates us in carrying out our activities, we like to synthesize it with a small tale:

During a fire in the forest, while all the animals fled, a hummingbird flew in the opposite direction with a drop of water in its beak. “What do you think you're doing!” asked the lion. “I'm going to put out the fire!” said the little bird. “With a GOCCIA Acqua?” said the lion with a sneer of derision. And the hummingbirds, continuing the flight, answered:
“I do my part!”
