Amazigh Cultural Association in America

The Amazigh Cultural Association in America (ACAA) is a non-profit organization established in New Jersey. This organization's goal is to promote the Amazigh (Berber) language and culture[1] in the world, based on the fact that, due to the North African emigration, today there are people of Amazigh origin worldwide.[2] However, the partnership focuses mainly on North Africa and the United States, where it is headquartered.[1]

The partnership aims to strengthen and revive the Berber culture. The association works with other associations, universities and scholars, and promotes information about Berber culture and language in the world.[2]
