We wish to encourage and support the indigenous African population and people of African origin living outside the continent, to take the lead in this mission.  Akeba sees the capacity building of this group as essential particularly with training and knowledge building in vocational, educational, networking, social and business skills areas. Akeba also promotes the understanding and removal of various obstacles or conditions that inhibit sustainable development and growth.

 

Another important factor for Akeba is the unification of alienated indigenous Africans and people of African origin & their communities. Events, workshops, seminars, discussion forums and other activities are organised that inform participants on their shared heritage and positive cultural values. We also encourage the sustained transmission of ancient or modern African cultures, histories, achievements and global presence from one generation of African ancestors to their descendants, and contribute in enhancing methods of generational learning.  Research is done in order to produce educational programs and materials, boards and qualifications which cover various aspects and levels of study.

 

Akeba additionally has an interest in providing relief to indigenous Africans and people of African origin suffering from loss of human rights, extreme hardship and other adverse circumstances.

 

All our fundraising projects and activities are to enable the achievement of the organisation’s aims and objectives. We also network with other charities and organisations to achieve any common goals.
