🔔 Testimonial Spotlight! Here's what one of our participants had to say about their experience with the Take the Lead program: "As a young woman, the Take The Lead program empowered me with the skills and knowledge to address the challenges faced by the youth in my community during the COVID-19 recovery. This journey culminated in my participation in the UN Kenya Interactive Dialogue at Gigiri, Nairobi. I had the privilege of sharing my experiences, perspectives, and problem-solving approaches, particularly focusing on the technological aspects of these challenges." Do you want to join the program?

Kenya's youth are a dynamic force with immense potential to drive the nation forward. However, challenges like unemployment, limited education, and social exclusion hinder their progress and contribute to instability. By investing in programs that foster social inclusion and prevent violence, we can harness this potential. Drawing insights from successful initiatives like the Kenya Youth Employment and Opportunities Project (KYEOP), we can develop effective strategies to empower young people and build a stronger Kenya. ✍🏻Learn more about these strategies and how to implement them in our post below.

Here is how I like to introduce myself: My name is Kealeboga and I am a change maker by purpose and a communications specialist by profession. This week we were in Rwanda teaching young people from all over the continent about effective advocacy and paving the way forward for the champions programme for 2024/2025. I presented on building an impactful personal brand, effective social media usage and gave them a crash course on media training. Here are my highlights for the past two days: • You are Africa’s plan A. Your role as an advocate is critical. You need to push, fight and organise. • We need to build relationships that actively support each others passions and causes so that we can be stronger in solidarity. Use the power of networking to form allies. • It is the citizens responsibility to hold leaders and governments accountable for the things they are supposed to do. Follow the information. An informed Champion is an empowered Champion. • We need to be educated on topics like the global financial architecture, development finance – what do they mean for the continent and how does it impact us. What role can we play as organisations in advocacy. It so important for us to be part of the conversation. If you don’t have a seat and a voice at the table – then you are on the menu. • African agency is not just an abstract term. African agency is in us, it’s a part of us – it’s in our DNA. It is the ability for Africans to drive change and development, rather than being a people that just lets life happen to them. This generation is the greatest generation that has ever lived – more connected and more mobile – yes you are not perfection but you could be the generation of the new liberation.
