The 26th edition of the Gnaoua and World Music Festival held in Essaouira, Morocco, marked a turning point with women taking centre stage at a festival long dominated by men. Recognised by UNESCO in 2019, Gnaoua is both a musical genre and a spiritual tradition rooted in the cultural practices of formerly enslaved Sub-Saharan Africans brought to Morocco centuries ago.

AFRICAN MONUMENTS

The Church of St. George, or Bete Giyorgis, is a remarkable rock-hewn church in Lalibela, Ethiopia, part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Carved in the 12th or 13th century, it’s one of 11 monolithic churches in the area, attributed to King Lalibela’s vision of creating a "New Jerusalem."

The church is carved from a single block of volcanic tuff, a reddish rock common in the region. The entire church, walls, roof, and interior was excavated and sculpted from one piece of rock. The church is sunk into the ground, requiring the removal of an estimated 3,400 cubic meters of rock to create the surrounding courtyard.

The churches were designed as a spiritual and symbolic center, reflecting Ethiopia’s deep Christian roots, which date back to the 4th century when the Aksumite Kingdom adopted Christianity. Bete Giyorgis, dedicated to St. George, the patron saint of Ethiopia, holds special reverence.

Bete Giyorgis is a focal point for scholars, architects, and travelers. Its striking appearance, especially its cross-shaped silhouette from above, makes it a favorite subject in photography and documentaries.

AFRICAN MONUMENTS

Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC) is a landmark and one of the most iconic buildings in Nairobi, Kenya, renowned for its architectural significance, historical importance, and role as a hub for business and tourism in East Africa.

Commissioned in 1967 by Kenya’s first president, Mzee Jomo Kenyatta, and completed in 1973, KICC was a bold statement of Kenya’s ambitions as a newly independent nation (Kenya gained independence in 1963). It symbolized the country’s determination to establish itself as a modern, progressive state on the global stage.

KICC’s role as the venue for significant international events, such as the 1973 World Bank Group and IMF Annual Meetings (the first time a developing country hosted such a UN headquarters meeting) and the 1985 Third World Conference on Women, cemented its status as a hub for global diplomacy. These events highlight Kenya’s growing influence in international affairs, making KICC a monument to the nation’s diplomatic history.

KICC is a symbol of Nairobi and Kenya, often depicted in media and synonymous with the city’s skyline. It represents post-independence optimism and national identity.
