About Africa Day Australia

Africa Day is the annual commemoration of the 1963 founding of the African Union (AU) which is celebrated in Africa and many countries around the world. It provides an opportunity to acknowledge the achievements of the peoples and governments of Africa. In Australia, Africa Day is celebrated in partnership between Africa Day Australia, numerous African Australian community organisations, members of the diplomatic corps, government organisations, members of various political parties and numerous community organisations. Africa Day Australia (“ADA”) was established in 2012 with our inaugural activities being held at the North Melbourne Community Centre. Since then it has grown to be the default engagement and collaboration platform for African Australians (“AA”). ADA’s mission has always been to contribute to cohesion within the City of Melbourne’s diverse multicultural. This has been achieved through celebrating not only the diverse African-Australian cultures, but also providing various platforms for people of diverse backgrounds to meet, socialise and share experiences.
