Who we are and what we do

AFRIKANA is a company approved by the Ministry of Education of the Czech Republic.

On a voluntary basis, it associates Czech and African foreigners residing in the Czech Republic and legal entities domiciled in the Czech Republic.

Its goal is the integration of the citizens of the Czech, Slovak and Polish republics into Czech, Slovak and Polish society, which is a guarantee of the successful development of all the values of a democratic society.
