The impetus for this initiative began with the leadership of the Congress of African People (CAP)(https://www.facebook.com/groups/CongressOfAfricanPeople/) and was later enjoined by the Friends of the African Union's Women (FAU)(www.friendsoftheafricanunion.com) and its Congress, as Co-Hosts. Harambee is a Swahili word meaning, "Let's All Pull Together" and is appropriate in the context of many sectors in the Pan African Community uniting together in the interest of bringing progressive change to our diverse communities. This mobilizing and organizing effort, also takes place in the context of the African Union (AU) exploring ways and means of forming a United States of Africa, which would include the Diaspora; the UN 's General Assembly declaration of this being the International Decade for People of African Descent (IDPAD); and the proclamation by a number of Continental and Diaporan leaders declaring this to be the decade of African Renaissance. This Global Conference Call is dedicated to the safe Return and Rescue of the 300 Nigerian School Girls, and the Protection of the Rights of Women everywhere!!!! AFRICAN WOMEN UNITE!!!!
