AFRICA NOW: 2020 Leadership Conference: “Achieving A Sustainable Future”
For so long, sustainability has been defined by the same powers that led to the destruction of African societies and climate change. It’s time to take power back. It’s time to redefine sustainability. Sustainability can no longer be about solely planting trees or the 3R’s. It is a holistic development strategy that takes into account all aspects of life (economics, politics, education etc.) Regardless of what impact you want to make we all have a significant role in ensuring sustainability is at the forefront of development. May 30th - 31st
10:30am - 12 pm PST Free & Public Event RSVP here The Africa Now Association is a UW RSO that exists to educate, organize, and mobilize youth to imagine and create a sustainable future for the global African community. Our association focuses on enriching global perspectives, supporting grassroots efforts across the African diaspora, and providing individuals with the network and resources to tackle problems facing the African continent and its diaspora. The ultimate goal for our annual conference is to build relationships between participants from diverse academic disciplines which will eventually yield new foundations, entrepreneurial ventures, group sponsored initiatives, and ideas that will translate into action, not only in Seattle but across the world. |
