Immerse yourself in the diversity of Burundi with the travelling exhibition “AMAHORO Burundi - Partner country full of facets”.
It provides a wide range of insights into the life, society and (colonial) history of the East African country. It also tells of the long-standing AMAHORO! state partnership between Baden-Württemberg and Burundi.
These central themes are used to tell success stories from the partnership that help to bring us closer to our partner country, Burundi. The stories are complemented by numerous pictures and illustrations. The exhibition includes:
Objective
The travelling exhibition "AMAHORO BURUNDI - a multifaceted partner country" offers the opportunity to bring the partner country closer to a broad section of society and to make the partnership known to new target groups. In addition, the exhibition is intended to encourage people to become part of the partnership and thus build a long-term relationship with the people of Burundi.
Target groups
The exhibition is available as 8 double-sided roll-ups and 16 single-sided hanging elements in A0 format. Thanks to the modular structure and the two available versions, the scope of the exhibition can be adapted to suit the space available and the exhibitors' own wishes on site.
