About Gua:
GUA Africa was founded by Emmanuel Jal, an ex-child soldier turned rap artist. The word GUA (pronounced gwaah) means peace in Nuer, a tribal language of Southern Sudan.
Our mission is to work with individuals, families and communities to help them overcome the effects of war and poverty. Each of our projects focus on providing an education to children and young adults who would otherwise be denied such opportunity. Currently our work is in Kenya and Sudan, however in the future we would like to expand into other areas of Sub-Saharan Africa - working with other experienced partner organisations where ever opportunities arise.
In April 2008 we were granted full UK charity status and later the same year we received our NGO registration in South Sudan.
As a number of our rappers are former refugees from Sudan, many of whose families and friends are still in Sudan, we thought it pertinent and important that we support this excellent cause.
The Hobart Fringe Festival is on again!
With all sorts of events and happenings and goings-on, there really is something for everyone to get involved with. From the traditional Super 8 contest (which I happen to be on the judging panel for!) to the Night Market to Bust-a-Move Physical theatre workshops.
You can download the full program here. Or find a copy in your local bar or cafe.
The Hobart Fringe Inc. is a not for profit organisation. The primary aim of the group is to organise an annual community arts festival. The focus of the festival is experimental, emerging and multi-disciplinary art.
We aim to showcase the talent that hasn’t yet made it in our arts adverse, commercial world, bringing attention to those inhabiting the margins that would otherwise be left unnoticed.
