Tell us what you think about festival 2007
If you were lucky enough to be at the festival, please take a moment to complete the questionnaire (English or Swahili). Those completed by the end of March will be entered into a prize draw with three lucky entries winning a t-shirt and other goodies. There's a choice of English or Kiswahili.
“There was a very impressive selection of visiting artists some of whom were unknown to the local people before. This has increased peoples’ trust in Sauti za Busara. It is obvious that the festival will have more audiences in the future, even when the programme does not show familiar names” Alex Mwavangila, audience member |
