“Damaro’s palaver tree, the centre of decision-making in Damaro, Guinea”, November 2021

I am Drissa Camara from Damaro. I am the son of the village chief. Where we are, Damaro is here, everything starts here, everything is decided here. This is our palaver tree. Since these stones were put here years ago, all development actions are decided here, all decisions are taken by the elders since our great grandparents until now.
