Rhodes University is proud to host the All Africa Students Conference for 2008. The AASC is an annual conference, which brings together African students, intellectuals and leaders to a roundtable forum on the most pressing issues facing the African peoples.

The conference will facilitate the exchange of ideas and information necessary for sustainable development in Africa and will establish connections between Africa, Europe, North and South America, and the Caribbean. Delegates will be able to seek acquaintances and galvanise bases for the continued co-operation and sister/brotherhood with all those who have the wellbeing and interest of the African peoples at heart. In doing so, the AASC will expand the basis for a pan-African network and build a stronger sense of collaboration amongst Africans and members of the African Diaspora. The conference is premised on the firm belief that, together, African students can make a crucial contribution to the future of Africa.
