Gouna Tiere winning project of Tierra Mujeres 2022

Last May 25 was the day of Africa and we want to take the opportunity to congratulate the women of Tombuctu Gouna Tiere and its leader Haoua Toure awarded with the first prize of TIERRA MUJERES 2022 by the Yves Rocher Foundation.

The Association GOUNA TIERE FEMMES TOMBOUCTOU has been the winner for its project of collection and transformation of plastics into sculptures, tiles, or bricks.  Since 2018, with the participation of more than 200 women, they have collected up to 25 tons of plastic.

In Gram Wilhelm we have had the privilege of meeting Haoua Toure in person when we made at the Cercle Artístic in Barcelona the exhibition of Irene López de Castro “The guardians of Timbuktu” where we showed a video of the association.
