The week in Africa with other like-minded peers is one of personal exploration, enlightened self-awareness and a powerful motivation to change. The bonds forged among the members in this extraordinary environment will last a lifetime and fulfill the meaning of the Tasimba name: Together We Are Strong. 

Each Tasimba group becomes a clan, each with their own unique name.  Our first group in March 2016 were the ‘Dangwe’ clan, meaning the first-born. Our November 2016 group were the ‘Ubuntu’ clan.  Ubuntu is a Southern African philosophy meaning that we each achieve our full humanity through our participation in the clan or group.

Our October 2017 group will be the ‘Vimbikai’ clan, meaning trustworthy.
