Tierra de Amani  takes its name from TIERRA, meaning "LAND" in Spanish, and AMANI, meaning "PEACE"   in Swahili (official language of Tanzania). By using both languages in one name, we try to bring both cultures closer together. Tierra de Amani is a non-religious organisation, and yet open and respectful to all forms of religion.
