About Meraki
We are a dynamic research and advocacy organisation registered in Botswana but working across Africa. Our mission is to drive positive change, create opportunities, and foster unity across the continent. Join us on our journey to empower youth, support creative industries, and advocate for sustainable development. Together, we can make a real difference!
We promote cooperation and unity across African nations, focusing on initiatives such as the free movement of people, goods, and services. By advocating for policies that reduce barriers, we aim to create a more integrated and cohesive continent.
We provide resources, training, and opportunities for young Africans to thrive. Our programmes are designed to enhance skills, build leadership, and foster entrepreneurship.
We support the arts and culture sectors, recognising their role in economic growth and social cohesion. Our efforts include funding, mentoring, and promoting African creatives on a global stage.
We champion sustainable practices that balance economic growth with environmental protection and social well-being. Our projects address issues like climate change, renewable energy, and sustainable agriculture.
Eased Movement Across Africa
We're particularly passionate about promoting integration policies that seek to make it easier for Africans to travel within Africa for tourism, study, work, and other purposes. This vision has roots in the early movements for independence, with leaders like Kwame Nkrumah and Julius Nyerere advocating for a borderless Africa. Today, this dream is being realised through key initiatives like the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and the AU's Agenda 2063.
