Heritage Trophy & Award - Akoben (Call to Action)
AW-AK
Vigilance, wariness, readiness to respond to challenges. That is the meaning of the Akoben Adinkra symbol, originating from the Akan people of West Africa. It's depicted as a war horn, traditionally used to signal for battle; a call to non-violent action to resist injustice and seek changes to empower others. In a broader sense, Akoben also signifies devotion, loyalty, and service, urging individuals to actively participate in supporting their community and environment.
