The Africa Faith and Justice Network (AFJN) was founded in 1983 by three Catholic missionary congregations motivated by their personal experiences in Africa, with the aim of transforming the mentality and policy of the United States towards Africa and her people. Since that time, membership has grown and remains committed in faith to advocate in Washington DC for US relations with Africa that foster justice and peace, and to educate the public across the United States. AFJN advocates for strong US foreign policies that promote democracy, freedom and human rights in Africa. (Source: AFJN website accessed June 11, 2016;
