Our Vision
Empowering Humanity Through Self-Development, Social Transformation and Economic Empowerment.
We believe in holding hands to empower the people, making them independent to walk forward to succeed.

The Periyar African Foundation (PAF) was launched on 16 September 2012 in Accra, Ghana, on the 134th birth anniversary of Thanthai Periyar, the great social reformer and visionary who championed human equality and social justice.
PAF is committed to advancing Periyar’s ideals across Africa, beginning in Ghana.
