It falls to you and I to ensure that the child experiences an Africa that functions and offers opportunities for a life of value.

About Us

Project Alkebulan is a Pan-African social enterprise with a mission to improve the quality of life of Africans and uplift communities through active citizenship and collective action.
We are dedicated to promoting Africa, empowering Africans, and incubating ingenuity in developing and deploying homegrown circular solutions to socio-economic challenges across Africa.

Our social development/intervention focus include:

  • Social Amenities: Water, Primary Healthcare projects.
  • Education – Literacy, Languages and Vocational Training.
  • Food Security/Sustainable Agriculture.
  • The Environment/Climate Change.

Our Story

The idea for Project Alkebulan began to form in 2022 as a result of our founder, Ephraim "Phoenix" Osinboyejo's experience working on the #AfricansInUkraine humanitarian campaign during which he co- founded a non-profit which aided African students caught in the war in Ukraine to get to safety in neighbouring European countries.

That experience, along with experiences in previous social-good work, and a desire to promote active citizenship and collective action across Africa brought on a clarity of purpose and instructed his decision to transition into social development.
Thus began the Project Alkebulan endeavour towards improving the quality of life of Africans.

Our Vision

An Africa that works for all Africans.

Our Mission

To improve the quality of life of Africans and uplift communities through active citizenship and collective action.
