There are a number of Kenyan content creators who have found creative ways to highlight and celebrate Kenya's rich cultural heritage on TikTok, with communities beyond Kenya's borders also contributing to the celebration.

TikTok creators use fashion, food, unique traditions, dance, and natural attraction sites to help locals and tourists explore, appreciate, accept and celebrate vast differences across cultures that warm hearts and strengthen community bonds.

As we gear to celebrate the World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development on 21 May 2022, I'd liike like to take a moment to spotlight a few TikTok content creators who have dedicated their time to making you appreciate our beautiful world filled with diversity.
