Welcome to Project Lighthouse Africa e.V.

Project Lighthouse Africa e.V. (PLA) is promoting sustainable development in African communities.

Our concept of development cooperation follows the comprehensive approach (integrated approach) and is based on the nexus development and security – communication – perspective development.
The PLA and its affiliates plan and implement country-specific projects that, after an initial period of co-financing, are able to meet their own financial needs. To ensure sustainability, charitable and commercial elements are combined.

The organisational structure is locally focused, with the flexibility to respond to rapidly changing project needs. In close cooperation with external partners, Project Lighthouse Africa gathers the necessary know-how for the successful implementation of the identified projects.
You have to go there. You’ve to listen and learn, to adapt your approach to the local situation. You must at least intend to stay. Even better if you do.
With Narrative Management for Peace through Dialogue (NAMA4PD), Project Lighthouse Africa has developed a science-based approach to strengthen the information literacy of the population in conflict-prone countries in West Africa.

This approach is intended to contribute on a scientific basis to combating propaganda, disinformation and hate speech, which are currently threatening the stability of many countries in the region.

Project Lighthouse Africa is a registered association based in Berlin, Germany.
