Our Mission, Vision, and Core Values
Harambee Institute exists to offer our community an education with a focus on the origins, current status, and future of the African world.
Our mission is to educate students to succeed as global citizens with a clear awareness of “who I am, where I am from, where I am going, and how I get there.”

2. Accountability: Owning what we do and who we are
3. Innovation: Open to new ideas with a growth mindset
4. Integrity: Honesty, transparency, and unity in all we do
