Who they are

The Masi live in rural areas of southwestern Zambia and along its borders, preserving communal customs and a deep connection to their homeland. In their villages, they maintain strong oral traditions and close family ties, passing their cultural heritage from generation to generation in their native language while facing the challenges of life in remote communities.
