BENIN GIRLS BAND FIGHTS FOR WOMEN, CHILDREN RIGHTS

It is a beautiful story and a breath of fresh air born from the imagination of a music teacher in the city of Natitingou, in the North-East of Benin. The idea of the multi-instrumentalist André Balaguemon was to launch a music school open only to young girls. The group is made of only seven girls aged between 11 to 18.“We also want to defend the right of children because they are not an object with which we can do what we want.
