Ladies and Gentlemen,

on Thursday, 7 August, BICC invites you to a talk and discussion on “African Diaspora Groups as Key Actors in Peace-building and Conflict Transformation Initiatives” (in English) with Dr. Awil A Mohamoud, Director of the African Diaspora Policy Centre (ADPC), Amsterdam.

ADPC is an independent organisation which was established in The Netherlands in 2006. ADPC provides a platform that enables African Diaspora in Europe to connect more closely with the continent as a collective force, pool their resources and proactively undertake initiatives for the promotion of peace, better governance and brain gain in Africa.
ADPC pursues its goals by facilitating the effective harnessing of the considerable, and largely untapped, social capital of the huge African Diaspora population in Europe for the promotion of peace, better governance and brain gain in Africa.

We look forward to seeing you at the talk. If you have any questions or wish to conduct an interview, please contact Susanne Heinke, BICC spokesperson (phone: 0228/911 96- 44, pr@bicc.de) or Andrea Warnecke (phone: 0228/911 96- 70; warnecke@bicc.de).
