Back 2 The Motherland
Through our Back 2 The Motherland program, participants dive into the rich culture and traditions of West African cultures.
Building Communities
Education is a vital human right, yet most of the world’s black and brown communities are lacking basic access to technology. We’re committed to changing that. Connected to Culture empowers local residents to take the lead in preparing buildings to bring a digital revolution to their communities.
Connect To Queendom
Connected to Culture is committed to empowering the next generation of female leaders across the world. Through our “Connect to Queendom” program, we provide resources, mentorship and connection to their peers to improve the quality of lives of women on the continent and throughout the African Diaspora.
Come C2C
African culture inspires art, music, food, and more in cities across the United States and the world. Join us as we explore cities and discover pieces of The Motherland in the Diaspora.
Each One, Teach One
Collaboration encourages conversations about the creative process and an exchange of knowledge. We work with arts and culture leaders to learners in Washington DC and nationwide with their West African peers virtually to learn new digital tools from industry experts, create joint projects and foster an understanding of new cultures.
