African
Diaspora Network
The human, natural, technological
and financial resources necessary to improve the quality of life in Africa
are found on the Continent and in the Diaspora. Ineffective governance,
dependence on foreign businesses and reliance on foreign aid have
exacerbated economic decline and spread the cycle of instability and
underdevelopment in our communities. We Africans must recognize our value,
and create jobs and services to develop our communities. Our survival and
well-being as a people depend on it. We must regenerate Africa and the
Diaspora to survive, develop and thrive as a race. Our time is now. Our
generation will make a change.
Africans need more than money to
develop. A synergy of human, natural, technological and financial resources
on the Continent and in the Diaspora is needed to develop our communities.
Improved organization, management and public awareness will enhance our
development.
The African Diaspora Network (ADN)
recognizes the fundamental need and responsibility of Africans to regenerate
Africa and the Diaspora. ADN is committed to educating, organizing and
empowering Africans to solidify our economic base through the creation of
jobs and services to develop our communities. ADN seeks to establish fluid
communication among Africans to create new markets and bolster existing
markets in Africa and the Diaspora. ADN is committed to transforming Africa.
