Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
The cassava paste that holds every Congolese meal together. You eat it with your right hand only. Pinch, dip, swallow. No chewing, no left hand, no rushing. Every child learns the technique before they learn to read, and every foreigner gets it wrong on the first try. Fufu is not food. Fufu is the mechanism by which sauce enters the body.
You encounter forest elephants, western lowland gorillas, and forest buffalo as you explore Gabon's dense rainforests and coastal regions. You find that Gabonese households commonly keep dogs and cats, with some families also keeping parrots and small primates as pets. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
