The founders and substratum of the organization (WICI-Africa) in their attempts to understand the core issues underlying the African quest for unity and peaceful co-existence, realized the need for a truly unity-oriented and well-founded strategy and procrustean approach to the questions that begs the explanation as to whether the current efforts in place for regional integration and conflict prevention, peace and peaceful coexistence, cultural preservation and total African unity are yielding any good, and if so, how much? If not, then why not? What is the continent missing?
We believe Africa has a dream; the dream of unity;the dream of oneness; where all Africans, both on the Africa continent and in the Diaspora, will share not merely a common history, but a common destiny, a destiny to be reached by all Africans leaving none behind. These were and have been the dream of Africa all this period. Those have been the dreams of our forefathers who shared their dignity, interest and blood to fight for an independent Africa. They fought with all their effort so that they could be free and their successors will not suffer the humiliation of slavery and colonialism which left a trail of venom, fatality and mental anguish. The residual effects of these harmful enterprises are difficult, if not impossible to ignore. A United Africa remains a constant theme- a great dream cherished from the earliest days of Pan-Africanism.
