Description
At Africa Connect, our noble mission is to unite students in a grand celebration of African culture — its splendour, diversity, and indomitable spirit. We are devoted to keeping our members enlightened on contemporary developments across the African continent, addressing matters concerning university life, and championing the vast investment and economic opportunities flourishing within Africa.
Our Aims
To unite African students in a powerful spirit of solidarity while magnificently showcasing the richness and brilliance of African culture.
To remain intellectually attuned to recent developments across Africa and to cultivate robust, thought-provoking discourse on pertinent issues.
To promote African culture, enterprise, investment, and tourism among all students, irrespective of heritage or background.
To support and empower African students in their seamless integration into the university community.
Our Strategy
We shall realise these ambitions by orchestrating a dynamic and inspiring programme of events throughout the academic year — each designed to ignite passion, stimulate dialogue, and deepen engagement with Africa’s diverse civilisations.
We ardently encourage the uninhibited expression of culture, creativity, and identity among members and non-members alike. Africa Connect thrives on collaboration, and we warmly welcome suggestions from all students who share our vision.

Our society will host a dazzling array of events, including:
Intellectual discussions and distinguished guest speaker sessions
Exquisite fashion showcases celebrating African design
Electrifying dance exhibitions
Cultural travel opportunities
