ADEPT is the Africa-Europe Diaspora Development Platform, a pan-European network established in 2017 and based in Brussels.

Our mission is to amplify the influence and impact of African diaspora individuals and development organisations in Africa and Europe. 

We have a network of over 200 African diaspora organisations and individuals based in Europe. Bridging the gap between the two continents, ADEPT members are active in EU and AU member states, as well as in Norway, Switzerland, and the UK.

Our vision is a world where Africa, its people, and its diaspora are empowered and transformed.
