GUA Africa was founded by Emmanuel Jal, an ex-child soldier turned rap artist. The word GUA (pronounced gwaah) means peace in Nuer, a tribal language of Southern Sudan.

GUA Africa has been granted 15 acres of land in Leer, West Upper Nile, by the government of South Sudan. Our goal is to build a high quality education centre for the whole community, which will also serve as a safe haven for children whose lives have been shattered by years of war and poverty. It is to be called the Emma Academy, as a legacy to Emma McCune who lies in rest in Leer.

A community for Nerds of all types.

A community to meet the "Right" person.

A community to meet like minded Democrats.

A new Gay community- Why try one color when you can have every flavor of the rainbow?
