The 3rd assembly of the African Grantmakers Network (AGN) will take place in Accra, Ghana from the 17th-19th November, 2014. This gathering will be hosted by the African Women’s Development Fund (AWDF). The theme for this year’s AGN is ‘Philanthropy in Africa – People, Policies and Practice’.
A two day arts and culture festival, ‘AfriFEST’ will be held on the 15th and 16th of November in the lead up to the conference. AfriFEST will showcase how arts activism animates philanthropic practices across Africa. What are the diverse contributions African artists have made to the field of philanthropy? How does art and culture stimulate social transformation among our communities? These queries will be illustrated through a number of activities including film, music, a visual exhibition, fashion, theatre, discussions and more.
