The Pan African Institute is an ecumenical, multi-faith, advocacy, and educational arm of the SDPC which seeks to connect Africans in diaspora to African foreign policy, renaissance ideas, and fellow collaborators across the globe. Global interdependence and the shifting landscape of formal politics calls for a renewed transnational conversation on the relationship between foreign policy and people of African descent.
The purpose of the Samuel DeWitt Proctor Pan African Institute is to connect Africans in diaspora to African foreign policy, renaissance ideas, and fellow collaborators across the globe. Global interdependence and the shifting landscape of formal politics calls for a renewed transnational conversation on the relationship between foreign policy and people of African descent on the continent and in diaspora. The United Nations has resolved that 2013-2023 would be the international decade of Africa. Looking to the future, investment in Africa is key to the sustained growth, vitality, education, prosperity, and innovation of African people.
