ABOUT
MUNTU means human being, the living, the one who is strong in the ties that unite him to his clan, his family, his descendants, his land, what he wears and what it produces, of what grows there or of what lives there.
Our ambition is to unite to reach thousands of young people in Canada and around the world. To do this, we want to support young people every year and give them the opportunity to fulfill themselves, to emancipate themselves, to take power over the future and to get involved in their community.
We mobilize youth from diverse backgrounds, particularly Africans and Afro descendants, by offering them cultural activities, conferences, workshops, coaching, mentoring, support in carrying out innovative projects aimed at promoting their social involvement, cohesion , economic efficiency, ecological awareness, civic engagement, the fight against prejudice, social inclusion and better living together.
The strength of the projects is that they are carried out for young people and by young people, the decision-makers of tomorrow, with the support of experts, vectors of change, facilitators. The projects and activities are an invitation to openness, to intercultural and intergenerational exchange and to acceptance, as well as an approach towards a better understanding of others while respecting the realities of each.
MUNTU is about sharing and solidarity as well as concrete actions and sustainable performance. We are campaigning for a society where success depends on social ties and civic engagement.
