Celebrating Africa’s Day

On May 25, 1963, the Organization of African Unity (OAU), now known as the African Union (AU), was founded. This historic day is now commemorated globally as Africa Day, a celebration that extends beyond geographical borders.

Africa Day is a moment to recognize the continent’s incredible cultural diversity and natural wealth. It also highlights Africa’s commitment to building a prosperous and united future. The celebration fosters a deep sense of pride in African identity, culture, and heritage, encouraging Africans to embrace their diverse cultures, languages, and traditions. This ultimately promotes a powerful sense of belonging and community across the continent and among the diaspora.
