African
Redemption Initiative
The African Redemption Initiative (ARI) is a response from the
African
Diaspora that is aimed at providing an answer to the
challenges of Africa , with a view of re-uniting the
African Family and reinstating her to the rightful place of
dignity and leadership within the family of nations. We hope
to achieve this objective by coordinating our efforts with
individuals, organizations and nation states who have
demonstrated genuine interest in African unity and
development. Accordingly, we intend to establish African
Redemption Tours, the African Redemption Foundation/Fund and a
network of African Redemption centres as pillars and
mechanisms of our initiative.
African
Redemption Tours
We
will coordinate tours within the six regions of Africa , as
mandated by the African
Union (AU) which includes the African Diaspora. The
proceeds of these ventures will help to finance the activities
of the ARI and the funds generated will not be repatriated
from the African continent.
Several
Artistes and other cultural practitioners from all around the
world have already pledged their support for The African
Redemption Tours.
African
Redemption Foundation/Fund
This
foundation will be sustained by funds generated by the tours
and merchandising as well as other cultural products, goods
and services that are consistent with our efforts.
African
Redemption Centres
Initially,
a centre will be set up in each of the five regions within Africa
and one in the African Diaspora which is now the sixth region
of Africa . Eventually we hope to have centres in each African
nation, all across the African Diaspora and ultimately
wherever necessary. These centers will be designed to be
self-sustaining and shall be operated as social intervention
and renewal centres with a specific youth focus. They will
have facilities, projects and programmes to meet the
objectives of the ARI as well as generate self-sustaining
income.
Some
of these are:
The
ARI intends to harmonize its work with the African Union, United
Nations and individual Nation States in enhancing a
sustainable development for Africa while contributing to the
welfare of the international community. We hope to coordinate
our objectives and methodologies with those of all ethnic,
cultural and faith-based entities that are committed to
African development. In this connection we hope to be able to
work within the inter-faith movement and with the United
Nations vision of 2011, which it designated as the
International Year for People of African Descent (IYPAD).
Also, we intend to consolidate any gains that these synergies
will generate and to use them as pivots for providing momentum
and sustaining our developmental work for Africa .
Finally,
we hope that these efforts will result in Africa gaining
membership within the Permanent Security Counsel of the United
Nations, since most of the UN's challenges are African
centered or African related.
Our
Mission is African Redemption
The
African Redemption Initiative is spear-headed by Yasus Afari
and an international network of colleagues and associates who
are committed to the development, inity and redemption of Mama
Africa.
Update
on the African Redemption Tour will be available soon.
