Youth
Research and materials addressing key issues for youth from an African perspective.
The Foundation has long recognised the key role Africa’s youth have to play in shaping the continent's future. There are a number of initiatives in place to give this vital group a voice on the highest stages, including the Now Generation Network (NGN), annual forums and events, interviews & spotlights, surveys along with the Ibrahim Leadership Fellowships which identifies and mentors the future generation of outstanding African leaders.
Young Africans need to be given the chance to support and enhance the continent's recovery, by giving them a platform, and exposing them to opportunities and productive networking environments.
The Foundation has produced a range of research and materials addressing key issues on youth from an African perspective. You can find our resources on this page.
