Fashion for Peace 2009


Following the huge success of Fashion for Peace 2008 and motivated by the overwhelmingly positive response, FAFA is proud to present Fashion for Peace 2009, a glamorous event which will bring together some of Africa’s top fashion designers and models.

The sit-down gala dinner and fashion show will take place in a magical tent set-up under the stars in the Nairobi National Park on 25 April 2009.

The fashion show will be supported by other creative events such as musical performances as well as a Designer Master classes which will provide an exchange forum to look at innovative ways of developing African fashion and having it further penetrate worldwide markets.

Funds raised support the Alternatives to Violence Project, building non-violence skills and helping people process recent events in affected communities around Kenya. Source
