We want to surround ourselves with women who respect other’s view and treat other’s with respect and having value for women, also to invest into people’s life positively and promote positive image of Afro women. We love to come together and share and we believe our lives are greatly enhanced by the women we surround ourselves with through giving, investing, impacting, networking and integrating.
 Introduction
Afro in Diaspora Center was initiated here in Ireland since 2010 by the CEO Susuana O.M Olatunji-Komolafe in recognition of the contribution of all African that has lived or still living in the Republic of Ireland, who have played a positive role and make an impact in the Irish society. As Africans we share history with Africans Americans, African British living here and back home as they also celebrate Africa America History/Black History Month.  With the aim of allowing our youths, children and the young generation, understand the beauty of their roots and staying strong in addressing the opportunities and challenges of being a minority in Ireland. . We also hope to use African History Month Ireland as a unique occasion to celebrate the Beauty and Culture of the African people on a grand scale while also honouring Eminent and distinguished individuals who have positively affected the lives of Africans living in Ireland primarily and the entire Diaspora in general

Created at Susuana.O.M Bee Sanyanga from Cork will be Showcasing some of his work @ the "AHMI" in GALWAY.http://www.blessingsanyanga.com/ Bee Sanyanga born in Harare Zimbabwe in 1978. Blessing comes from a family of artists. From an early age he began stone sculpting. Working at the Cannon Peterson Art Centre in Harare with over 180 stone sculptors in 1998 he began exhibiting his creations. Blessing’s inspiration comes from day to day life, dreams, imagination and the stones them selves. All his sculptures are original and one offs; I work straight into the stone without having to do a model first. Only a number of sculptures that he makes are created from sketches. Working in different types of stone such as cobalt, soapstone, black granite, serpentine, marble, sandstone and limestone as his main medium. Blessing also does paintings, ceramics and metal sculptures. Blessing as Exhibit is work in all location below in the past. 2003 Black Forth Orgainic Gallery 2004 Design Yard 2004 Ideal Home Exhibition 2005 Gallery 38 Bray 2006 Stephen Pieace Gallery 2007 The Courtyard Gallery 2008 Temparence hall Kinsale 2009 City Goal Cork 2009 Clock Tower Gallery Cohb 2010 Temparence hall Kinsale 2012 Back water artist group 2012 Nasc Art in Action @Cork Vision Centre International Human Rights Week 2012 Cork Lions Club art exhibition 2013 Touring S
