AHC facilitates the storage of ancient African information in African Historical Society (AHS) secured databases in partnership with national and international educational and cultural institutions, libraries, African governments and African -descended institutions including HBCUs.

AHC is committed to the redress of the inherent human rights violation engendered by the knowledge dependency and destruction of African institutions that continues in Africa and for the African-descended through the alienation of ancient information from contemporary Africans and the African-descended and also from international knowledge systems and educational institutions of the international community at large. AHC supports the freedom of information for the field of academia.
