 Africa
Action knows that powerful change can take place when people
of conscience raise their voices for justice. We learned this
in the civil rights movement and in the anti-apartheid struggle.
Africa Action invites you to take effective action to build
more just U.S. policies toward Africa. Please join us in three
primary campaigns.

Religious communities and student organizers have traditionally
played pivotal roles in changing policy. Africa Action's Religious
Action Network is a powerful way for people of faith to engage
with their religious communities. Africa Action's new Student
Network facilitates student activism nation-wide. Please take
a moment to engage with these critical Africa Action Networks.
