6. SOUNDBITE (English) Aisha Nabwanika, Founder of Ewaffe Cultural Village:
"People associate our cultural norms as ancient or backward or maybe these guys weren’t understanding but trust me they really put in a lot of knowledge in some of these things. It wasn’t just done out of the blue. For example sitting with your children on the same mat and have lunch. It was a way of knowing your children, what are their habits. You observe them on how they really eat food, so it was one way of children up bringing. But today, parents never even see their children, they just see them once in a while on a weekend. They just don’t spend time with their children, what they call really quality time with their families. So at Ewaffe we are really trying to do that.”

9. SOUNDBITE (English) Aisha Nabwanika, Founder of Ewaffe Cultural Village:
"Statistics have shown us that the tourists who come to Uganda always, as they are having game park drives, safaris and all that, they would also want to have a feel of the culture of the country to know the people, to eat the local food to learn a few words in the local language, to show that I am in that particular culture or that particular country. So I really thought so hard that around here in the central we were missing a place that you would take a tourist to experience a traditional life of a Ugandan, so that is why I came up with this place.”

13. SOUNDBITE (Luganda) Caroline Nambi, Cultural Instructor at Ewaffe Cultural Village:
“These days children do not know how to prepare food, secondly, they do not know how to dress, thirdly they do not know how to behave. A lot of culture and norms are disappearing because of not knowing them. Like us who grew up in the era of strict culture and training, we want to bring these things back amongst the people and you never know maybe the world will be a better place.”
14. Various of visitors being taken through how to prepare traditional food
15. SOUNDBITE (English) Olivia Nakalembe, visitor:
"Because we have largely grown up in the city, personally, and you have over concentrated on the books, there has been a hiccup somewhere. I feel like coming here to Ewaffe Cultural Village has now reconnected me kind of to my roots.”
