Africa Faith and Justice Network
About
The Africa Faith and Justice Network (AFJN) is a community of advocates for responsible United States (US) relations with Africa. AFJN stresses issues of peace building, human rights, and social justice that tie directly into Catholic Social Teaching. AFJN works closely with Catholic missionary congregations and numerous Africa-focused coalitions of all persuasions to advocate for US economic and political policies that will benefit Africa’s poor majority, facilitate an end to armed conflict, establish equitable trade and investment with Africa and promote sustainable development. AFJN engages members of both the Legislative and Executive Branches of the US Government, African Diplomatic Corps, religious leaders, and the US public on various important issues affecting Africans to advance our message of social justice. AFJN acts as a voice to inform and motivate people to take action in their local communities and internationally. We work closely with many constituents on the ground all over Africa as well as with individuals and congregations in the US. We are also registered as a UN-DPI organization at the United Nations.
