Our Impact

Action In Africa is community-led in every sense. We have created programs built around the community, not a community built around our programs. We do not exist to impose programs the community doesn’t want or need, we exist to support them through programs driven by research, data, and compassion. We have developed a unique model that is based on the fundamental premise that when individuals earn opportunity for growth they are fundamentally more committed to their own success. Through this work we have helped thousands of women and children improve their lives through education.
