ABOUT TOKUMA
Concept
​
Tokuma is an ancient primordial word that appears across cultures of the globe, the concept of TOKUMA, we are using originated from the ancient language of the Oromo in Africa. The key and central value of the Oromo is Tokuma: Being one and Becoming one. Tokuma allows for identification with the group and with the environment. All aspects of life and work religious, social, political, economic, and environmental aspects of life revolve around TOKUMA. The mission of the Tokuma Foundation is to recognize that Becoming One, One with People, and One with Nature, is critical in forming resilience towards today's challenges.
