Advocacy & Media
Speaking up for safer, more inclusive travel across the African continent.
Our Mission
Travel should be safe and joyful, for everyone.
The Travelling Wakili advocates for the rights of women and queer folk to move freely, safely, and joyfully across Africa. We use our platform to challenge harmful norms, push for policy change, and celebrate the communities that make travel transformative.
