Virtual Journey of Mali Mali flag

This virtual journey was transferred to the Cool Planet website from On the Line. Much of the information here relates to the time when the millennium dawned.

Mali is probably the only country that can boast two famous citizens with the same name: Salif Keita. Their talents, however, are very different. Find out more as you explore. As you travel, you’ll discover what’s happening in Mali in 2002 and why everyone there is so excited, and if you get hungry, don’t worry, we’ll tell you how to rustle up some sesame sticks as a sweet treat. So go on, what are you waiting for? Start your journey now.

Click on the buttons on the left to find out about the subject of your choice, or go to the guide book to get the low down on Mali’s history and people. To test your knowledge you can try out the Mali quiz.
