Africa Day 2024

Today, we celebrate Africa Day, celebrated on May 25, an essential milestone that remembers the founding of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in 1963, currently known as the African Union (AU). 

 
For IUSY (International Union of Socialist Youth), this date has special importance, as it reflects the values ??of solidarity, equality and social justice that we promote globally.
 
Africa Day is an opportunity to recognize and value the rich cultural, historical and social diversity of the African continent. It is a time to highlight the achievements of African countries and the strength of their youth, who fight for a fairer and more sustainable future.
 
By celebrating this day, we reaffirm our commitment to international solidarity and mutual support among young people around the world. For IUSY, it is essential to support and amplify the voices of young Africans in the search for human rights, democracy and sustainable development.
 
Africa Day reminds us that unity and cooperation are fundamental to building a better future, not just for the African continent, but for the entire world.
 
Together, we can tackle global challenges like inequality, climate change and conflict, promoting peace and progress for all.
