Tonga.Online is a project involving ARGE Zimbabwe Freundschaft (The Austria-Zimbabwe Friendship Association), KUNZWANA Trust and the Valley Tonga. The aim is to foster mutual understanding and better relations between people for the benefit of all and not just the privleged few.
Tonga.Online has its roots in the Austrian solidarity movement of the sixties and seventies with the Zimbabwe Liberation Movements.
Cultural exchange started with the Austrian duo, Attwenger, touring Zimbabwe in 1993 with Black Umfolosi. Attwenger loved the swimming pools but were frightened of the rhinos.
Promotion of Tonga ngoma buntibe music and culture became the
focus of this cultural exchange in 1995.
