...What is Khwest?<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
Khwest is a lifestyle philosophy with its roots in Africa, inspired by the continent\u2019s rich cultural heritage, vibrant peoples and diverse landscapes. Khwest is a celebration of the strides that we as Khwe (a.k.a homosapiens), continue to take, on a journey that began in Africa. A journey that seeks to change the world in pursuit of our individual conquest in life. It is from this seed, that the name \u201cKhwest\u201d germinates. Sown by Khwe, nurtured by the conquest of humanity, and blossoming into Khwest.Khwest \u2013 the African journey begins again, this time determined to fulfill that age-old African Dream to change the world in a new day and time\u2026.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t
