The objects of Sakoma shall be:
To provide an opportunity for Black, Minority and Ethnic organisations to work together on issues of mutual concern.
• Share information and experience concerning the Member organisations and their constituencies
• Promote the empowerment of Member organisations
• To articulate and promote the needs of Members, where they concern more than one organisation
• Be a focal point for service providers that wish to consult about their services
• Develop partnerships and cooperation between Members
