Holding two master’s degrees, in international business management and in tourism, Linda FARAJ, born of a mixed Beninese-Palestinian heritage, loves new experiences. Deeply attached to culture, this female adventurer created “Benin Trip” in 2017, https://web.facebook.com/Benin-Trip-2193519907536766/, a digital platform that promotes the discovery of Benin through a series of trips. Convinced that promoting domestic tourism and Beninese culture is the cornerstone for better revealing Benin to Beninese people and to the world, Linda and her team regularly organise trips across Benin. Since its launch, “Benin Trip” has already organised more than fifteen trips to Avlo, Lokoli, Ouidah and elsewhere, each time with a focus on promoting local culture (food, dress, ethnic traditions, etc.). The next trip, to discover the Pendjari, the largest wildlife park in West Africa, is scheduled for 3 to 6 May in northern Benin. Alongside the organised trips, “Benin Trip” launched “Trésors révélés” (Treasures revealed) a few months ago, a web show that promotes local consumption and regularly welcomes Beninese influencers or personalities who introduce the community to a “made in Benin” product or service. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Join me on my official digital channels, Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/AurelieASZ/photos/a.1710372699021764/2314339215291773/?type=3&theater and Twitter: https://twitter.com/AurelieASZ until 30 March 2019, to discover the profiles of exceptional women from a range of fields (social action, education, health, tourism, fashion, etc.) who are making an impact on their communities through digital tools and thereby helping to reduce the gender gap, the gender digital divide.
