Africans Rising is holding the 2nd edition of the All-African Movement Assembly from 29th – 31st August in Accra, Ghana. This is the largest Pan-African gathering of Activists, human rights defenders and movements.
The second edition will build on the first one held in 2022, bringing together 400 activists, human rights defenders, movements, social justice advocates, at least one from each African country and members from the diaspora to convene, converse, connect and strategize.
