How I heard about fD and why I'm here

Having recently launched Pirogue Collective, the arts and culture sibling of the Goree Institute, I join the fD network to connect with organizations and persons whose missions not only reflect a kindred spirit, but whose initiatives might enhance Pirogue Collective. And, vice-versa. I heard about fD while working as Programs Officer for the Goree Institute in Goree, Senegal.
