Muda Africa is a non-governmental organisation founded on the belief that the creative sector is essential in developing and sustaining social, cultural and economic progress for youth.

We believe that contemporary dance, in particular, cultivates the individual and collective spirit of creativity, trust, cooperation, discipline and openness to change. These fundamental values and skills will help the youth of Tanzania become agents of positive change in the society.
