ArchiAfrika attempts to put African architecture on the
map and contributes to the understanding and development of African
architecture.
The long-term aim is to establish a platform for the exchange of
knowledge and information on activities, projects and architectural
heritage in Africa. The target group consists of architects, urban
planners, teachers and students on Architecture and cultural and
governmental institutions. This group is invited to actively participate
in the above platform and, in so doing, to jointly achieve the aim.
We expect that the increased appreciation of African architecture will,
in turn, contribute to the theoretical debate and the development of
western architecture. We hope that knowledge of and respect for African
Architecture will encourage the African continent to be proud of its own
culture and that the value of its heritage will become a tool for its
own, independent future.
