Building Ethical Leadership for Africa’s Future

The African Renaissance signifies a resurgence of African values aimed at fostering the continent's socio-economic and cultural transformation and advancing ethical societies. Central to this revival is Ubuntu, an African philosophy emphasizing our shared humanity and interconnectedness. This webinar series promotes intergenerational dialogue, amplifying youth voices and action while fostering collaboration across generations and engaging the African diaspora in advancing the African Renaissance.

“Intergenerational Dialogue: Amplifying Youth Voices Action for African Renaissance” is the second of a webinar series aimed at engaging young people across the continent in meaningful dialogues that address their role in shaping the African Renaissance. Youth-led movements have been instrumental in recent years, with youth across Africa advocating for reforms in governance, addressing corruption, promoting environmental stewardship, and safeguarding family values. The potential for Youth to contribute to this renaissance is immense, and their voices must be amplified to ensure they lead Africa’s future toward peace, prosperity, and unity. This webinar series will provide a platform to highlight youth perspectives, challenges, and opportunities in advancing Africa’s development.
