Africans rising for justice, peace and dignity hosted the virtual all African Citizens Conference. The event was one of the largest online Pan-African gatherings bringing together activists, leaders, youth, movements, and engaged citizens from across Africa and the diaspora under the theme "enhancing solidarity towards building the Africa we want".
As we continue to witness the shrinking of political and civic spaces, heightened levels of corruption, inequalities, curtailment of the freedom of expression, association, and assembly in many countries across the continent, this conference provides a crucial platform for African citizens to collaborate in the effort to bring positive social change to African communities.
