Kaddu Yaraax is a community association based in Dakar (Yarakh) that uses forum theatre as a primary tool for organising citizen debates on various sociopolitical themes (climate change, gender-based violence, migration, etc.).
For over 20 years, she has been running workshops and a national festival of forum theatre, in collaboration with local partners, to promote democratisation of public speaking in community settings, particularly in rural areas and abroad.
With 17 active members and a broad support network, the association acts as a community development lever through participatory art and civic engagement.
