The Problem

Museum Africa is a museum non-profit foundation (founded and headed by Mr. Earl Smith) aimed at increasing and expanding awareness of Africa's cultural and ecological heritage to our world past, present and future.

Plan of Action

Museum Africa's currently has three educational projects targeted toward its mission- the building of a large-scale Google sites (http://sites.google.com/site/museumafricaproject/) dedicated to early African history, the development of a Second Life virtual museum, and the actual building of a 600,000 square floor museum-library complex. We are also in the middle of a couple of small educational projects-in-progress such as a Flickr photo database, Women's History Twitter Campaign, and other social networking activities
