Team Founding Story I was born in the village N'zanfouenou (Ivory Coast) and I even started my early school years in the village. So I loved my village and its wealth and values of solidarity. In the village, the air is pure, the environment is conducive to healthy living there. The brave farmers and their families are constantly working. Our grandparents told us tales and stories of their times, the village and how one space, this place has become a modern village. All these values and conaissances are endangered today. Our children and our brothers plsu speak native languages. African culture loses its mark today. MyAfrikanVillage comes to bring a solution durable.
