A historic ceremony for Senegal and for Africa. On October 31, 2026, Dakar hosted the opening of the first Youth Olympic Games organized on the African continent. Through “L'Envol de Sitoé”, a show combining dance, music, traditions and contemporary creation, the artists told the story of an Africa proud of its history and looking to the future. How was this show imagined? Why did you choose to tell the story of Africa through the eyes of a little girl? And what legacy for African creators? Khady Niang, director of the YOG Dakar 2026 ceremonies, is Fatimata Wane's guest in the Journal de l'Afrique on France 24.
