The Hitchhikers guide to Quaggapedia (or the AfrikaBurn event encyclopedia).
In years past, this resource used to be called 'The survival guide to AfrikaBurn' and was printed out and distributed to participants of AfrikaBurn the event. Today it's the online encyclopedia of everything you need to know about attending AfrikaBurn the event and beyond. If you want to volunteer and help us build this resource and make it as rich as possible, please contact [the Quaggapedia team] You can help us to translate it, enrich it and add information from your own AfrikaBurn experiences to help 'each one teach one'
