ONE CONTINENT. ONE VISION. ONE MINERAL FUTURE.
AFA OVERVIEW
A Movement for Africa’s Economic Independence and Prosperity
Africans for Africa (AFA) is a global movement uniting Africans and People of African Descent around a common vision: mobilizing African capital, expertise, networks and leadership to drive the continent’s economic transformation, self-reliance and long-term prosperity.
Founded under the leadership of the Africa Minerals Strategy Group (AMSG), the initiative seeks to ensure that Africa’s vast mineral wealth, industrial opportunities and strategic resources increasingly benefit Africans first. It is a platform for action, investment and collective responsibility that empowers Africans to shape their own economic future.
Through strategic partnerships, investment vehicles, advocacy campaigns and global engagement, Africans for Africa is building a new generation of African ownership, economic freedom and prosperity.
OUR BELIEF
“Africa possesses the resources, talent, capital and leadership required to transform its future. The challenge is not potential. The challenge is collective action.”
— H.E. Moses Micheal EngaduAFA FUND
Mobilizing African Capital for African Transformation
The Africans for Africa Fund is the investment and financing arm of the Africans for Africa Initiative. Co-founded by AMSG, Core International and Motimose Metals, the Fund was launched in July 2025 to mobilize African and Diaspora capital for strategic investments across mining, infrastructure, energy and industrial development.
The Fund exists to demonstrate that Africa’s future can increasingly be financed by Africans themselves. It provides a vehicle through which Africans and People of African Descent can collectively participate in transformational projects while building long-term wealth and ownership across the continent.
