A little history…
Tinhinan is the name of an indigenous queen of the Kel Tamasheq (Tuareg) people. The co-founders of the Association, Mrs. Nanah Djadah and Dr. Mariam Wallet Aboubakrine, both originally from this people, chose to give this name to the association in order to always remember their origins. This is why, through our association, we are committed to helping other girls, boys, women and men find their place in Canada, while encouraging them to preserve their cultures and opening opportunities for them. opportunities towards this.
We are convinced that through exchanges and collaborations between the different members (natives, non-natives and immigrants) we will succeed in building bridges in various fields such as education, culture, social projects and thus contribute to building more inclusive sustainable communities, respectful of each other’s values.
