Harambe Cameroon is a private, apolitical and legally Cameroonian organization led by the bright minds of Cameroon in the Diaspora and in the country. The endeavor was officially launched on November 12th, 2009 at Royal-Co Bastos, Yaounde.

Harambe-Cameroon is an independent branch of a much larger international alliance called the Harambe Entrepreneurship Alliance (HEA). HEA is an alliance of African students studying at leading colleges and universities in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom.


HEA’s mission is to capture, inform and engage Africa’s global intellectual capital towards a sustained, strategic and concerted development of the African continent. Established in September 2007 as a non-profit enterprise, HEA has quickly grown in its outreach with 18 African Countries currently being represented, 85 official signatories, and hundreds of affiliates. This is arguably the most powerful network of the next generation of African professionals anywhere in the world.

As part of this international endeavor, Harambe Cameroon is spearheading the first Social Entrepreneurship Program in the nation. The program seeks to change the paradigm of competition and entrepreneurship amongst Cameroonian students. Harambe-Cameroon’s mission is to inspire a new generation of young leaders and entrepreneurs who see problems as opportunities in need of solutions and have the poise and wherewithal to engage others to create long-lasting social impact. « less
