AfCD was founded with the mission to promote community building and social transformation in diverse and under-resourced communities. We do this through specific and measurable approaches designed to enhance the capacity of individuals. We support disadvantaged members of the community by helping them define their own path to bring about social change.

Social transformation and community development can only occur in a society free from all form of prejudices, deprivation and is culturally dynamic.

We work with our networking partners in providing information, advice and guidance to individuals to meet their needs. We also provide training, resources and community engagement in our effort to develop responsible and active citizens.

Objectives:

• To provide training, information, career advice and guidance to Refugees, migrants and other disadvantaged members of the society.
• To promote empowerment, self-advocacy and build the capacity of Black, Asian and Ethnic Minorities (BAME) and other disadvantage members of the society to the benefit of the wider community.
• To provide a forum for the exchange of ideas, resource assistance and coordination with other community-based organisations.
• To carry out research and publications on issues of socio-economic development and human rights.
• To set up projects as well as collaborate with existing indigenous Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) in the developing world whose works are geared toward the development of civil society and the reduction of poverty.
