The Village

The Africa Unbound Village is an intentional community brimming with vitality and purpose.  Here you’ll find a unique place where people from around the world come for learning, self-discovery, and for giving back with intention to make a positive impact in the world.  

We are building a space that allows for deep inquiry and encourages us to ask the fundamental questions, hold robust discussions as well as quiet contemplation, and forge meaningful connections.  In a world where chaos, monotony, and brutality abound, we need safe havens and bright spots to revitalize ourselves.

  • The Museum takes you on a journey of self-discovery. Reaching deep into our roots, learn about our shared heritage, the richness of ancient cultures, and how our ancestor’s knowledge and wisdom can be applied today to solve some of our persistent problems.
  • Our Learning Center provides customized seminars and workshops in consultation with visiting groups.
  • Meet the Pathfinders: Young women and men who are eager to share their ideas and co-create solutions for sustainable development. Support their efforts through advice, mentorship, access to networks, funding sources, etc.
  • Residential Retreat Center: Nestled in the hills of Entoto Forest, on the outskirts of Addis Ababa, the Village offers the ideal place for residency, where individuals and groups come for quiet contemplation, group work, or simply for rest and refuge.
  • The Guesthouse welcomes you with warm bread, and invites you to immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of Ethiopian culture.
  • In our vibrant community, we take you back in time so you may experience how our grandmothers prepared to welcome guests. Experience living among the people, taste traditional dishes, participate in rituals and ceremonies, learn local languages, and more.

Join us as we embark on this profound journey of transformation!
