Vision
JKI is an ardent advocate of the arts not only for its obvious beauty and aesthetic appeal, but also as an economic engine through the creative industry, a contributor to research and discourse within the humanities on issues of local and global significance, and as a catalyst for multicultural understanding, diplomacy, and collaboration.

 In exploring every aspect of human development, from literature, philosophy, sciences, and religion, languages, architecture, law, business, to public service, a foundation in arts and humanities gives you the insight and critical thinking skills to live an examined life, to express yourself with self-dignity, and to appreciate your role in, and relationship with, your local community and wider world. Toward these ends, we enable the holistic development of adaptable leaders who address the complexities of human experience both locally and globally.

Mission:
Through the arts and humanities, JKI improves the quality of life in the community with the discovery, creation, and dissemination of knowledge of human experience, thought-provoking expressions that cultivate intellectual breadth, ethical reasoning, sustainable development, the preservation of African arts and culture and its contributions to world civilization, and development of culturally inclusive curricula.
