Why BENINOW?

“People of African descent are not simply distant members of our family. They are our children, our brothers, our sisters. They embody an essential part of our collective identity. By recognizing their right of return, we are saying to them: 'You have never ceased to belong to this land. Africa is your home, and we welcome you with open arms,'” Olushegun Adjadi Bakari, Benin's Minister of Foreign Affairs - speech delivered at the UN General in New York, in September 2024.

Begin your return

I was born in France to Beninese parents, but I had never truly known the country beyond their stories. Thanks to BENINOW, I was able to reclaim my nationality, visit the places my mother told me about, and meet my family in Abomey. This journey changed how I see myself. Returning to Benin felt like closing a circle and rediscovering part of my history.
