Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
The Makgadikgadi Pans are one of the largest salt flats in the world. Dry season and you can see the curve of the earth. Wet season and the flamingos arrive by the thousands, turning the pans pink. The baobabs at Kubu Island stand like sentinels and every Motswana who has slept under them will tell you the silence out there is louder than any city.
You witness hippos, African buffalo, various antelope species, and crocodiles in Burundi's lakes and wetlands. You observe that Burundians predominantly keep chickens, goats, and dogs for both sustenance and companionship. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You taste Fernandes ginger ale and Banks beer, Suriname's iconic beverages that reflect the country's multicultural heritage and tropical ingredients. You understand how these drinks connect Surinamese communities to shared moments of celebration and daily life, with Fernandes especially holding nostalgic value across generations of Surinamese families.
