Alert

[gva_call_to_action button_align=”button-bottom” style_text=”text-dark” link=”https://ada-gh.com/donate/” text_link=”Donate Now”]We prioritise human investment and equipping youngsters with knowledge that could aid them to solve African challenges themselves. It is our passion to share ideas on African History, African Societies, Global Learning, Science, Local Languages, Politics, Culture Etc. with Ghanaians and people of African origin. It’s both a short and a long term approach to empower African youths in the struggle for real independence.

Young and motivated tertiary students are trained to offer workshops in schools and organizations. Workshops are very practical, active, encourage reflection, and aim to change perspectives. Colonialism has left certain unconscious negative norms and practices. By actively engaging in discussions with teenagers and kids, they will be more conscious of their actions and the effective role they play (or can play) in their societies. Alert also reaches out to the public through videos, songs, prints, arts and more. We share our ideas on social media and youtube.

In Wiesbaden, we aim to promote the empowerment of Africans and Afro-Diasporic people by offering educational programs and network meetings. Through our monthly hangouts, we aim to share history, culture, and experiences.
