a) To eradicate poverty and promote civil society structures, as well as to establish a spirit of solidarity for more dignity in Africa, particularly in Angola, and among African descendants.

The AFA calls on every African to take responsibility for the future of Africa as a whole. b) The AFA aims at monetary intervention and/or consumption and material goods in projects that benefit the children and youth class and generally promote human well-being.
