The non-profit organisation AfricAvenir International, based in Berlin, Germany, was awarded the Condorcet-Aron Prize in the category for “Prix de la réalisation étrangère” (Prize for Foreign Achievement) in the “Parliament of the French Community of Belgium” in Brussels on 17th September 2009. The Prize, with a remuneration of 1,500€, is annually awarded by the Centre for Political Research and Teaching (CREP) with the aim of honouring committed individuals and organisations who are exceptional in championing the values of humanity and democracy. The individuals and initiatives receiving the award combine critical reflection and practical action to outstanding effect. The reasoning behind the jury’s decision in awarding the prize was as follows: “through its varied activities and cultural exchange AfricAvenir International helps raise awareness amongst the German public of a new perspective on the African continent. (…) The aim is not to talk about the African continent, but to offer a platform to African experts and activists so that a dialogue can be entered into concerning their views and ideas. At the same time AfricAvenir also manages to make a significant contribution to the critical reappraisal of the colonial history of Germany and Europe.” read more
