Africa Summit undertakes massive fundraising to send BLSA representatives to countries in the African Diaspora, such as Ghana , Botswana , South Africa , Kenya , and Namibia . The goal is to expand BLSA’s community and develop ties to the larger African legal, political, and humanitarian aid communities. As many as fifteen students have gone to Africa in a given year to represent BLSA. While abroad, students have visited and engaged in cultural exchanges with local law schools, the US Embassies, High Court judges, Attorney generals, Human Rights organizations, and local community service groups and orphanages.
