Value proposition

The African Leadership Institute offers the Archbishop Tutu Fellowship Programme

The African Leadership Institute is building a critical mass of visionary, strategic, self-aware and ethical leaders across the continent, who together become the catalysts for change and transformation of Africa. It is dedicated to identifying, nurturing and equipping Africa’s future leaders with experiences, insights, and tools so that African-led solutions are developed to address Africa’s challenges. The Institute provides a platform for a diverse network of young African leaders to network, and engage in peer-to-peer learning and cross-border collaborations. Working with a select group of partners, leading academics and accomplished global leaders, AFLI facilitates opportunities for young leaders to create a new Africa. The African Leadership Institute (AFLI) was founded in 2003 by African-born Rhodes Scholar Peter Wilson and Sean Lance, a renowned international business leader. The two recognised that in order to achieve the most impact in Africa, developing the next generation of leaders should be the highest priority. Archbishop Desmond Tutu, renowned for his part in the struggle for freedom against apartheid in South Africa, a Nobel Peace Prize Winner, and chairing the country’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission, is the patron of AFLI.
