Open Design Afrika is driven to effect systemic change that can benefit the greater good.
ODA builds capacity through creativity for a future-ready Afrika so that we can help to develop communities of problem solvers and changemakers: Active global Afrikan citizens that are equipped with creative intelligence, future skills and the confidence to add value, significance and meaning to the future world of business, our environments and society at large. This will enable us to stimulate and develop thriving knowledge and circular economies in Afrika and help us to collectively design a better future world.
In true ODA style the festival events and experiences attracted participation and exciting contributions from a diverse local and global community.
RISE WITH US IN SOLIDARITY TO DESIGN A BETTER FUTURE WORLD! We learned from and celebrated many Afrikan and global superheroes, changemakers and social entrepreneurs who design to include, design for life, design for change and design for wellbeing to drive and achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals in Afrika and the world.
All Afrikan languages write Afrika with a “K”.
We see Africa with a “C” as an external and outside worldview of Afrika. Afrika with a “K” is us as Afrikans taking ownership of our future and our destiny. It is an inward looking out perspective of our Afrikan continent.
Rise up with us.
Make cities together.
