Applications are now open for the YALI East Africa cohorts 57,58 and 59 and young changemakers all over East Africa are invited to apply!

The Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) is now accepting applications for its next three groups: Cohort 57 (a mix of online and in-person learning), Cohort 58 (fully online), and Cohort 59 (in-person learning).

According to their website, they are looking for young leaders who want to improve their leadership skills.

For starters, YALI was started by former US President Barack Obama to help young Africans become better leaders. The program focuses on young people because most Africans are under the age of 35.

The YALI Regional Leadership Center East Africa, located at Kenyatta University in Nairobi, serves 14 countries in East and Central Africa. Deloitte East Africa runs the center with help from various partners.

If selected, you will join the other participants to attend a 4-week training program that focuses on leadership skills, innovation, and teamwork.

This program uses interactive and hands-on learning to help participants become better leaders.
