"It has become even clearer to me that technology and innovation, if well designed, operated and scaled, can benefit not only the rich, but citizens, governments, private sector all in one go, and it is enough to solve Africa's economic woes," said timbuktoo Africa Executive Secretary Natalie Paida Jabangwe, MBA DIC at the UNDP Global Leadership Retreat.

At The Africa Social Impact Summit (ASIS) 2024, Oluwasoromidayo George, Board Chair of the UN Global Compact Network Nigeria, emphasized the critical role of empowering youth through strategic initiatives such as leadership development programs, mentorship, and industry-driven partnerships. By aligning these initiatives with key sectors and equipping young Nigerians with future-ready skills and high-impact networks, we can unlock their potential and drive innovation, economic growth, and sustainable development. The summit highlighted that addressing Africa’s complex challenges requires a multi-stakeholder approach, focusing on scalable and sustainable solutions that empower the next generation to lead with purpose and resilience. Strategic collaboration between the private sector, government, and civil society is essential to create lasting impact. By investing in the youth, we are investing in a brighter, more sustainable future for Africa. #ASIS2024 #Partnerships #SustainableDevelopment

🌏 Governance and Leadership in Papua New Guinea: Opportunities for Growth Papua New Guinea’s governance landscape is uniquely shaped by its diverse cultures, challenging geography, and evolving socio-economic dynamics. Leaders play a crucial role in fostering transparency, accountability, and inclusive development—principles emphasized in the Vision 2050 framework.  🚀 By strengthening institutions, promoting ethical leadership, and engaging communities in decision-making, we can overcome persistent challenges such as:   ✅ Corruption and weak institutions.   ✅ Political and economic instability.   ✅ Inequities in resource allocation.  Leadership is the catalyst for achieving these changes, setting the tone for good governance, ethical behavior, and sustainable development. Together, we can create a fairer, more prosperous future for all Papuans.  💡 Let’s embrace the principles of Vision 2050 and commit to collaborative efforts in building stronger systems for tomorrow.  #Leadership #Governance #PapuaNewGuinea #Transparency #Vision2050 #SustainableDevelopment  

This week, a powerful vision for Africa’s future leadership took shape with the launch of the African School of Governance - ASG in Kigali, Rwanda. Founded by H.E. President Paul Kagame, H.E. Hailemariam Desalegn, and a coalition of prominent African leaders, ASG is set to deliver world-class public policy education, research, and engagement programs designed specifically for the unique governance challenges across Africa. We’re also thrilled to congratulate Professor Kingsley Moghalu on his appointment as the inaugural President of ASG. His distinguished track record in governance, policymaking, and academia will no doubt be instrumental in steering this visionary institution forward. As a Pan-African institution with a global outlook, ASG’s mission is to equip emerging leaders with the skills, knowledge, and mindset to drive sustainable change across the continent. With support from the Mastercard Foundation and partnerships with global leaders in governance education like the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, ASG is committed to cultivating purpose-driven African leaders. Why ASG Matters: 1. Tailored Programs: Academic pathways include a Master of Public Administration (MPA), Executive Master of Public Administration (EMPA), and specialized leadership fellowships that meet Africa’s governance needs at every stage of career development. 2. Research & Policy Engagement: With research centres focused on African-led innovations in policy, trade, technology, and regional integration, ASG is a hub for tackling Africa’s most pressing issues through actionable solutions. 3. Visionary Leadership: Guided by Professor Moghalu and a distinguished board led by Makhtar Diop, ASG is positioned to redefine governance excellence across the continent. The ASG isn’t just an educational institution—it’s a movement towards sustainable African leadership that will ensure African voices lead on the global stage. #GovernanceInAfrica #AfricaSchoolOfGovernance #Leadership #ASG #AfricaRising #PublicPolicy #SustainableDevelopment #EducationInnovation #YoungAfricaWorks #AfriTradePulse
