LEAP Africa Youth Leadership Programme (YLP)

The Youth Leadership Development Programme is intended to empower, equip, and support young change leaders who are Nigerian undergraduates under the age of 30, by providing them with the knowledge, abilities, and supportive environment required to become self-leaders who bring long-term change to their communities.

As Nigeria approaches an election year, the Youth Leadership Programme has never been more relevant to the current concerns being encountered in Africa today, particularly those bordering on leadership, active citizenship, and sustainable development.

The Youth Leadership Development Programme consists of 22 modules organised around the program’s three pillars: leadership, active citizenship, and sustainable/community development. The modules have been meticulously planned and adjusted to match the contemporary circumstances of Nigerian youth in order to close gaps in leadership, active citizenship, and sustainable/community development. The modules will assist learners in developing the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to become true change agents who lead community transformation and influence policy change.

LEAP Africa Youth Leadership Programme Pathways

The Youth Leadership Development Programme will take on two pathways this year; the Sustainability pathway and the Advocacy pathway.
