Join us in Abuja as we commemorate African Liberation Day 2025, a day of reflection, unity, and action. This year’s celebration brings together Africans and allies from across the globe to honor the sacrifices made in the fight for freedom and to reignite the spirit of Pan-Africanism.
Through keynote speeches, panel discussions, cultural exhibitions, and youth-led forums, we will explore the past, engage the present, and shape the future of a liberated and empowered Africa.
