We are a Network of Young African Leaders
YALI’s
Africa-based leadership program provides transformational training to
young African leaders between the ages of 18-35. There are four YALI
Regional Leadership Centers (RLCs) located at African institutions of
higher education, which offer in-person, online, and hybrid training.
Established
through public-private partnerships, the RLCs capitalize on the
dynamism of the private sector and the institutional capacity of African
higher education institutions. Modeled on servant leadership, the
holistic curriculum offered at the RLCs develops and supports a
professional network of uniquely trained, highly qualified leaders in
three tracks of study: Civic Leadership, Public Management, and Business
and Entrepreneurship.
RLC
graduates become alumni, who are motivated to be a positive force for
transformational change in their communities, and committed to give back
through training other leaders. YALI’s leadership training centers also
offer some sector-specific training on contemporary African issues such
as waste management, electrification, digital training, and education
to develop young and transformative African leaders who are ready to
tackle the most pressing problems on the continent.
