The 2025 edition of the African Social Movements Baraza has kicked off in Accra, bringing together passionate activists, organisers, and change­makers from across Africa and the diaspora.

The event, co-hosted by the Ghana Center for Democratic Development (CDD-Ghana) and TrustAfrica, is focused on harness­ing the power of movements to drive real change on the continent.

The Executive Director of TrustAfrica, Mr Ebraima Sall, called for a borderless Africa where people can move freely to connect, work, study, and live.

He stressed the need to ease visa processes and support mobility across the continent, saying it should be the bare minimum for development and unity.
