PLATFORM IV: ECONOMIC EDUCATIONAL ADVANCEMENT THROUGH TECHNOLOGY


Technology must be mastered if there is any hope of economic educational advancement. To address this powerful reality, Alpha Kappa Alpha resolves to work with higher educational institutions and other organizations that reach students to develop an exemplary model technology access and training program that serves the community and becomes part of the central activities of the institution. This program will be implemented exclusively by undergraduate chapters.

PLATFORM V: HEALTH RESOURCE MANAGEMENT AND ECOMONICS


Complete physical and mental fitness requires a balance of emotional intelligence, optimal psychology and spirituality. Studies prove that when all of these elements are in divine order, physical health, relationships and life satisfaction will be the result. Through health resource management and economics, Alpha Kappa Alpha will address the many health issues and crises that face the Black community in the United States and globally. The mandate in this platform is to develop programs to gain emotional empowerment and develop social support networks to raise public awareness about the importance of the balance of emotional intelligence, psychology, spirituality, and physical health.
