Lift Africa Technologies is a Non Profit Section 21 Organization affiliated to New Work which makes available and trains people in the use of advanced technologies. This enables members of the community to produce, for themselves, the majority of products they need for a modern comfortable life. It is the aim of Lift Africa to re-energize people with a vision not only of economic independence, but of renewed culture and individual development.

"I have tried to evolve an organically integrated set of policy proposals that would have the power not only to stop the appalling deterioration of our country – her accelerating descent into a pit of cynicism, passivity, violence and despair – but that, instead, would define a step by step process leading us back to the path of our original mission: to becoming the greatest force on the globe in the struggle for a more humane, a more intelligent and a more life-giving culture."
