Description
On December 13, 2022, the Center for American Progress (CAP), Africa-America Institute, African Diaspora Network, and The Africa Center hosted an event to celebrate the African Diaspora and its role in advancing a collaborative U.S.-Africa foreign policy.
The reception called together a wide array of individuals and organizations from the African Diaspora, long involved in advancing a thoughtful and strategic U.S. foreign policy towards Africa.
The event was an important opportunity to highlight the integral role that African voices play in ensuring meaningful and sustained U.S. engagement on behalf of the continent—a critical contribution to successful U.S. foreign policy toward the continent, as recognized in the Biden Administration’s Sub-Saharan Africa Strategy.
