The Africa Center and the African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) are set to launch the Afreximbank Africa Diaspora Center (AADC), a pioneering initiative aimed at strengthening the connection between Africans on the continent and those in the Diaspora.
The AADC will serve as an institutional platform to bridge the gap, facilitating the exchange of Africa-focused information and enhancing economic opportunities for Africans worldwide.
The official launch will take place at the 2024 Future Africa Forum on Monday, September 23, 2024, at The Africa Center in New York. This new initiative advances The Africa Center’s mission to engage with contemporary Africa and shift global understanding of the continent’s role, while also aligning with Afreximbank’s vision of empowering Africans to tackle current challenges and build opportunities for future generations.
