Caravanamani (Peace Travel)

At each location, Caravanamani holds theatre workshops in collaboration with local partners. In Sudan, students from Sudan University’s College of Music and Drama and well-known actors developed a number of scenes on environment, non-violence, and diversity. According to the organisers, the workshop methodology draws from the interactive and inclusive perspective of forum theatre by Augusto Boal, and seeks to disseminate the message of political and social change. The goal is to change people's minds and transform misconceptions around peace and conflict. After the workshop, an event is held that includes the work produced during the workshop, as well as government and non-governmental organisation speakers, and other related activities. As part of the drama performance, actors sung songs, danced, and chanted slogans. The play included imagery of red blood cells and their fight against malaria parasites and starving goats following humans who eat soil to keep themselves alive.

In Khartoum, Sudan, the event included tree planting, a presentation from a group of young peace activists, and a live band.
