THE CONCEPT

African Views Organization aligns the existing parallel between the 20 goals and aspirations of the African Union Agenda 2063 and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations 2030 Agenda, ensuring the cultural integrity of indigenous society and institutional precedence. African Views Organization works with governments, civil society, the private sector, traditional leaders, and customary authorities to find new and lasting ways to reach the Sustainable Development Goals.

The organization promotes critical thinking, creative problem solving, self reliance, and interdependency in order to resolve the impact of African intersectionality and problems of existentialism. African Views Organization (AVO) works to explore how gender, culture, race, and other social categories are interconnected with pre-existing disparities in opportunities for development, especially for women. It is "a research and advocacy institute for understanding the role of gender and culture in societal development." African Views (AV) is foremost a concept for raising the consciousness about conscientiousness and efficacy of the African role and place in the world.

 

THE ORGANIZATION

African Views is registered in the United States, Ghana, Nigeria, Rwanda, and exists in other places  as an independent (non-affiliated) international organization. The organization operates a worldwide African cultural exchange framework and collaborative network that combines intelligence and wisdom from various indigenous cultures, professional disciplines, and academic faculty. 


THE FRAMEWORK

The AV framework is a worldwide cultural information exchange, communication platform, and collaborative network.


VISION

The African Views organization exists on the principle that no person or people, anywhere, is prevented or denied the opportunity to develop and reach their fullest potential in all aspects of the humanities and humanism because of their gender or other natural conditions or cultural heritage. 

The organization exists to make sure that African ideas, principles, philosophies, customs, and innovative contributions to human civilization and our understanding of the universe are shown in the best way possible.
