Amidst the echoes of a quelled revolt by the Abes people of Ivory Coast, the feet and utility belt of a dead attacker lie still, a chilling reminder of the recent past. Elsewhere, in Grand-Bassam, the hum of a wood factory hums in contrast, as craftsmen shape intricate designs. A young girl of the Ebrie (Akan) Tribe smiles, her vibrant attire a splash of color against the backdrop of daily life. In Aboisso, doctors tend to the sick, their compassionate care a beacon of hope. At the Aby Lagoon, the sun sets over coffee plantations, their rich soil nurturing the beans that fuel the world. A golden mask from the Baule people gleams, a testament to their artistic prowess. And in the heart of Abidjan, a tool to weigh gold dust sits amongst intricate Baule jewelry, a symbol of Ivory Coast's rich cultural heritage and natural resources.
