Atlanta is primarily served by Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), the world’s busiest airport and a major hub for domestic and international flights. Located about 10 miles south of downtown Atlanta, it offers extensive connections via Delta Air Lines and many other carriers.

Transportation options from ATL include:

  • MARTA trains: Direct service to downtown and key city areas.
  • Ride-shares/taxis: Available at designated zones.
  • Rental cars: Convenient facilities connected to the airport.
  • Shuttles: Many hotels and conference venues offer shuttle services.

There are no significant secondary airports for commercial flights in Atlanta. For private aviation, DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (PDK) is an alternative.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA

Welcome to Atlanta, a city where history and innovation meet to inspire the next generation of changemakers! As you gather here for the Youth African Diaspora Conference this February during Black History Month, you’ll find yourself in a place rich with cultural significance and transformative stories. Known as the birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement, Atlanta offers a powerful connection to the struggles and triumphs that have shaped the African diaspora. From the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Park to the vibrant Sweet Auburn District, the city invites you to explore its legacy of resilience and leadership.

This is more than a conference—it’s a celebration of shared heritage, global perspectives, and the collective power of African and African American youth. Amid Atlanta’s vibrant energy, diverse communities, and iconic landmarks, you’ll find the perfect backdrop to connect, learn, and build a future that honors the past while shaping what’s next. Together, let’s create, inspire, and thrive in the spirit of unity and progress.
