PAN’s mission is to
inform, educate and mobilize people in support
of the peoples of Africa for
sustained peace; economic, political, social
justice and democratic
development. We have come together
because we understand that the same factors of
race, class, gender, and
militarism contribute to people’s limited access
to health, education, and
quality of life both domestically and in Africa.
