AKDA was founded on the ideals of Ubuntu and the African Cultural Values that are at the root of being an African. The organisation aspires for every descendant of the continent and her Diaspora to identify with their African roots and use this as a foundation to advocate for Peace, Love and Unity. Apart from this AKDA seeks to master a concerted effort to project strength and solidarity against discrimination, war, racism, tribalism, xenophobia and GBV which continue to undermine the African dream.
