CSAAEINC Emerging African Leaders Program 2018 for Nigerian Undergraduate Students (Fully Funded)

 

 Deadline: September 30, 2018

The Centre for Social Awareness, Advocacy and Ethics (CSAAEINC) invites
applications for the 2018 Emerging Leaders Project (ELP). The aim of the
program is to raise a new generation of Nigerian leaders imbued with
strong morals and skill set necessary to navigate Nigeria out of poverty
and underdevelopment.

In 2013, CSAAEINC launched the Emerging African Leaders Program (ELP) to
respond to Africa’s failure of leadership. The 3-year program is
designed to channel young people into activities that develop leaders of
character; cultivate a spirit of entrepreneurship; promote good
governance, transparency and accountability in government; and encourage
mentorship among African youths. ELP focuses on emerging state and
non-state actors generally considered key to development. Upon
completion of ELP, mentors evaluate progress and induct successful
mentees into the Centre’s Network of Effective African Leaders (NEAL).

Upon completion of the 3-year ELP, mentors evaluate progress and promote
successful ELP graduates to the Centre’s Network of Effective African
Leaders (NEAL). These effective leaders are supported by CSAAE to run
for offices, serve in government, initiate enterprises and shape public
policies. They bear on each other on good governance, mentor emerging
leaders at CSAAE and champion social impact projects in Africa.
