National Summit On Africa

aka The Africa Society   |   Washington, DC   |  www.africasummit.org

Mission

The Africa Society of the National Summit on Africa is at the forefront of the nuturing an increased desire to be connected globally, one that is contingent on a broard-based educational approach that emphasizes balanced information on Africa and the elimination of misconceptions. And yet, this is not a one-way venture, since improved knowledge on Africa is designed to awaken a desire to learn beyond our immediate areas of familiarity. A wider understanding of cultures, both near and far, is a germane to a larger appreciation and respect for the human community that we all belong to, and is crucial in sustaining the type of harmony that would ensure enhaced socioeconomic and political partnerships worldwide. For young people, The Africa Society's goal offers a platform that prepares them to be future international ambassadors of peace and mutual cooperation.
