The first-ever Auroville meeting on African soil, to take place in Cape Town in March 2006, is greeted with enthusiasm from many sides. It promises to bring together dedicated and experienced individuals, groups and organisations from Auroville and Africa, in an eventful gathering that will encourage multiple exchanges and collaborations in ongoing projects.
A broad-based introduction to Africa, primarily through South Africa, and to Auroville will be
offered through presentations, discussions, interactive workshops and more. Interaction with South Africans and Africans, excursions to places like Table Mountain, Robben Island, townships, community projects, and cultural events will allow guest participants to get in
touch with essential aspects of the country's life and spirit. Africa and Auroville have much to
offer to each other and to share their rich experiences and aspirations.
