AMAN exists to increase awareness surrounding the countries comprising South-East through a unification of the diverse people, heritage, languages, and cultures.

The Organization’s purpose is to be an inclusive community that celebrates the diversity within African culture and the economic opportunities in Africa in an effort to promote a learning and social environment that will enrich students’ interest in Africa. We have 3 pillars that we seek to provide to Babson students: Support, Education, and Development. We want to support students on campus who identify with their African lineage/heritage by building a community at Babson. We seek to educate those who don't know much about African culture by spreading knowledge through our events and communication platforms. We want to develop our organization to leave a lasting impact or be considered as more memorable to students, staff, and faculty on this campus.
