About ACSI
Our Statement of Faith
Christian education is growing rapidly across Africa, reflecting the continent's remarkable demographic trend, with over 50% of the population under the age of 25. ACSI Africa equips and empowers national leaders – including those in the church, family, school, and university – to meet the urgent imperative of preparing the next generation through quality education marked by excellence, cultural relevance, and a biblical worldview:
We’re motivated by a desire to serve and strengthen.
Africa Strategies 2050
The Africa 2050 strategies of ACSI Africa are informed by the Declaration of the Africa Round Table 4 (ART4) on Christian education, convened by ACSI and its partners in August 2023 in Kigali, Rwanda. The event brought together 236 delegates from 30 African nations under the theme, 'Envisioning the Church and Christian Schooling Together for Africa 2050.' The Africa 2050 strategies also compliment ACSI's Vision 2030 growth initiatives. Under the servant leadership of Dr. Maletoungou, the Africa Leadership Team translated the ART4 Declaration into key, measurable objectives to be implemented by the year 2050:
- Make quality Christian schooling available and accessible to God's children in every African nation.
- Equip one million African teachers through a certification program in biblical worldview and biblical integration.
- Make Christian educational resources accessible at an affordable cost through regional publication, production, and distribution hubs across Africa.
- Develop a Christ-centred culture for transformation and prosperity in our nations through the Africa Week of Christian Education, an annual recurring continental event to be celebrated simultaneously across Africa (Deut. 11:18-25).
- Through the notion of "Total Networking", make ACSI educational services and tools widely available and accessible to both ACSI and non-ACSI members.
- Invest more in developing the human and professional capacity of our personnel, and create an organisational structure and culture that serves all, while fostering the ideal of being Stronger Together.
