African ACES vision
To develop and produce audio-visual communications using multiple media platforms to promote nation building through preservation and promotion of our cultural heritage and to transfer knowledge, skills, education and inspiration from leading experts and icons to assist disadvantaged individuals and communities uplift their lives.
About the Organisation
Our belief is that every young person in South Africa deserves the best opportunities in acquiring knowledge, inspiration and education in order to uplift their lives and provide the best possible future for themselves and their families.This belief is shared by numerous personalities who have reached the pinnacle of their professions – people who are able to motivate, inspire and educate others.
Our mission is to harness the knowledge and inspiration of these African ‘aces’ through the power of television, radio, print and new media – and to develop mass and niche media opportunities to distribute their knowledge across the nation in order to motivate and empower individuals and communities to provide a better future for themselves.
Our Values
Robert Louis Stevenson said: “Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.” Our team is unified by the desire to create media programmes that make a difference to people’s lives – programmes that provide a transfer of knowledge which ultimately inspires and empowers the audience to take significant steps up the ladder of self-sustainability.
To achieve this, we are committed to plough back our knowledge, skills and experience into all of our projects and while doing so, work with integrity, maintain the highest ethical values and treat our partners, funders and beneficiaries with respect and humility.
