ABOUT US
Who We Are
Telaventos is a Cultural and Social NGO (Non-Governmental Organization).
Created by Dr. Ronyta Bexigas in coordination with the São Toméan community based in London, UK.
Founded with the mission to preserve, promote, and celebrate the identity of São Tomé and Príncipe,
Telaventos also serves as a bridge between African diasporic communities and wider British society.
Our Story
The project is led by Dr. Ronyta Bexigas, a São Toméan Executive and Entrepeneur Woman from the Islands, living in London.
Telaventos has been actively working for more than three years to bring the community together through culture, identity, and pride in African heritage.
"São Tomé and Príncipe, far from our eyes, but close to our hearts."
This is the motto that inspires Telaventos, encouraging us to preserve our cultural essence no matter where we are in the world.
