The Tangale people are one of the ethnic groups in Northern Nigeria, situated in Gombe State. They have a rich and diverse culture and heritage that includes their language, food, festivals, religions, and history. However, due to various factors such as migration, inter-tribal conflicts, colonialism, and modernisation, some aspects of their culture and heritage are at risk of being lost or forgotten.

Springfield Centre for Peace and Humanitarian Development (SCPHD)’s project aims to restore, preserve, and protect the Tangale people’s culture and heritage. It will do this through documenting and promoting their native language, Tangale, which is spoken by the majority of the people in areas like Ture, Kwame, Billiri, Kaltungo and Shongom. It will also celebrate and showcase unique delicacies, prepared with local ingredients, support their festivals, respect and understand their religious diversity, and research and teach about the history of the settlement which traces its origin from Yemen through Egypt.
