Be Part of Move Afrika.

Global Citizen is the world's largest movement of action takers and impact makers dedicated to ending extreme poverty NOW. The voices of millions of Global Citizens around the world are driving lasting change towards sustainability, equality, and humanity by taking action every day. 

We post, tweet, message, vote, sign, and call to inspire those who can make things happen to act — government leaders, businesses, philanthropists, artists, and citizens — together improving lives. 

By downloading our app, Global Citizens learn about the systemic causes of extreme poverty, take action on those issues, and earn rewards with tickets to events, products, subscriptions, and more. 

Global Citizens have taken over 33.5 million actions since 2009. Today, these actions, in combination with high-level advocacy work, have led to over $43.6 billion being distributed to our partners around the world, impacting 1.29 billion lives in the fight to end extreme poverty.

Move Afrika is Global Citizen’s latest effort to address the world’s inequities by creating job and entrepreneurship opportunities for the continent’s emerging generations through an annual series of world-class live events. Showcasing the best of Africa to the world, these events will drive transformative investments in community-provided health services within local communities, engage local vendors, agencies, artists and crews, and provide opportunities for on-the-job skill development and training.

This initiative will focus on the key policy goals of promoting equity – specifically in the area of health, defending our planet and its inhabitants, and creating jobs and economic opportunity. We are calling on Global Citizens to take action to ask African leaders, philanthropy and the private sector to make significant commitments to make meaningful progress towards strengthening health systems.

Move Afrika’s first major music event, Move Afrika: Rwanda, will take place on 6 December, 2023, at the BK Arena in Kigali, Rwanda. Grammy Award, Pulitzer winning artist and co-founder of creative imprint pgLang Kendrick Lamar will headline the event, and pgLang will serve as the Curator of Move Afrika for the next five years, from 2023 until 2028.

In partnership with the Rwanda Development Board, Kigali, Rwanda will serve as the Move Afrika tour’s anchor city every year for the next five years. Each year, additional countries will be added to the tour schedule, which aims to expand to five countries by 2025.

Move Afrika: Rwanda is taking place on Wednesday, 6 December at the BK Arena. Stay tuned for door and show times!
