African Speech Night Contest
An event created to encourage African youth based in China to be proud of their countries hence teaching the world about their countries and cultures in a competitive way. There is a huge stereotype that people have about Africa hence we would like to show them the true and good side of Africa that people / media never tell or show. For this competition students are given 3 minutes to market their countries such that after the 3 minutes the audience will know where in Africa their country is and what they can find there. The students with best presentations win. Culture makes people understand each other better. And if they understand each other better in their soul, it is easier to overcome the economic and political barriers. But first they have to understand that their neighbour is, in the end, just like them, with the same problems, the questions.

To help schools have libraries and equip the schools with the latest technology. AANEDU will also offer scholarships to students and enable them to go on exchange programmes abroad. One major goal is also to make sure all schools are linked to the internet and will offer free classes on how to use computers to access educational materials online.
