About This Cause
The Africa Solidarity Centre Ireland is a charitable and non-profit organization founded in 2000 by a group of activists within the African diaspora community in Ireland. This group of activists wanted the community to be active participants and have a voice in Irish society. The African diaspora communities in Ireland represent, in themselves, the variety of a vast continent with its own rich cultural diversity. The growing presence of these communities produced a need to provide a voice for the growing number of Africans in Ireland and this is what the Africa Centre approach in community participation and enhanced African presence in Ireland through awareness, projects, campaigns, contact and exchange as central to the mutual advantage of all interested people. Our aims are to promote justice, social inclusion and participation for African communities in Ireland and encourages a more positive Africa-Ireland exchange; works to advocate, educate and network towards a just and inclusive society in Ireland; tackle Racism, Afrophobia, Islamophobia, as all other discriminations, working at National and European level with other Anti-Racism organisations, to highlight and challenge the issue of racism in Ireland and promote the European Union the global anti-racist initiatives and other forms of structural discrimination affecting People of African Descent in Europe.
