Community Events
Inter-community Events
Africa House (NI) will seek to facilitate intercultural and inter-community events within the African Diaspora community and with the wider community in the region. There is a rich heritage and cultural tradition within the African community and these activities will assist in bringing the communities together. Minded that Africa is bigger than Europe and that there are dozens of different nationalities to consider, and indeed languages to explore, this will be useful in bringing Africans together as a confident group within this society.
Please note, Planning for the future events will be arranged at the AGM Leader's Forum. All events subject to adaptation.
