Africa Centre

Africa Centre is a charitable and non-profit organization founded in 2000 by a group of Activists within the African diaspora community in Ireland. This group of activists wanted the community to be active participants and have a voice in Irish society, but also to inform development policy in Europe and in African countries.

Aims

  • To reach out to the developing African immigrant community in Ireland and to promote their participation in society
  • To engage in community development and poverty alleviation projects that improve African community living standards.
  • To advance public education and knowledge on intercultural and anti-racism issues.
  • To promote links between Ireland and Africa and advance co-operation, dialogue and partnership on development issues.
  • To build capacity and resources, where people may engage in social and cultural activities, training and where they may engage in research on issues relating to Africa and Africa-Ireland exchange.
  • To network and collaborate with persons and bodies working among immigrants or active in global justice issues both at the local and international levels.

Vision

Our vision is of a just, tolerant and inclusive society that recognizes and values the mutual benefits of inclusion and participation. We are conscious of our global interconnectedness.

Mission
