The MasterCard Foundation Scholars Program at the Forum for African Women Educationalists (FAWE). Preliminary findings from a landscape scan on women's transformative leadership in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Week 2 gender and youth in africa
The document discusses gender and youth issues in Africa. It begins with reflecting on previous discussions about development, how countries are classified as rich or poor, and why a focus on women and youth is important. Statistics show challenges facing women in areas like education, health, wages, and maternal mortality, while youth face high unemployment. International organizations prioritize gender equality and empowering women and youth through various goals and frameworks. The document then explores concepts of gender and how roles are socially constructed, differing for women and men. It provides context on defining youth. The remainder discusses implications of these issues for development in Africa.
Supporting the YOUTH in CRP1.1 to achieve impact
Marina Cherbonnier presented the young professionals platform for Agricultural R4D, an international movement of young professionals under 40 who are active in agricultural development. The platform networks a number of regional offices and country representatives. The rational behind YPARD is that youth need to get involved, to access professional opportunities and to be given a collective voice in agricultural development. Objectives of the platform include the exchange of information and connection people, contributing to strategic ARD policy debates, the promotion of agriculture among young people and facilitating access to resources and capacity building opportunities.
The disenfranchisement of youth in the dry areas is primarily due to a lack of political power and decision-making, poor access to finance and markets, unsupportive institutions and policies, and the absence of social equality.
Dryland Systems will focus on youth because youth migration and unemployment are key challenges in dry areas and youth retention and positive community contribution in rural areas are a means to meet those challenges. Strengthening youths ability to learn and make decisions based on adequately contextualized knowledge and the development of leadership skills to overcome the complexity of dryland systems in its whole are key strategies for youth empowerment.
A youth component will be a part of every SRT within Dryland Systems. SRT1 will include youth as an explicit stakeholder in the innovation platform. SRT 2 will address youths’ specific vulnerabilities and risks. SRT 3 will build capacity and employment of youth through entrepreneurship and innovation. SRT 4 will enhance cross regional cross-regional information sharing via ICT4D.
Capacity development in fragile contexts
Presentation one in a series from Humentum's Capacity for Humanity conference in Arusha, Tanzania, February 2018. By Robert Ndiritu.
GEC+ 2016: Emanuele Santi
This document summarizes the African Development Bank's experience with an entrepreneurship ecosystem approach in Tunisia called Souk Attanmia. The program provided seed grants, mentoring, and co-financing to support entrepreneurs, especially those from disadvantaged regions, youth, and women. Over 2000 applications were received for the first round of funding and 61 projects were selected. The program leveraged 1 million euros to raise over twice that amount in financing from local banks. It is estimated the funded businesses will create 1000 new jobs. The African Development Bank plans to expand this approach to other countries and partner with more private sector and foundation partners.
Leadership Transition: Barriers to Youth Emergence
A former Head of state (Nigerian), General Ibrahim Babangida while Responding to a question on why he was not interested in younger politicians ruling the country on the 16th April 2010 was quoted to have said “we have seen signs that they (the youth) are not capable of leading this country,…. May be they are not given the proper education”.
If the youth of this nation must emerge as leaders, opinions such as this must be changed through demonstrated understanding of issues and actual performance in areas of responsibilities.
"Leaders of tomorrow" they call the youth but since tomorrow has refused to come, youths must make tomorrow become today by taking the throne of their communities and indeed the nation. It is a process; today is the best time to start the journey.
This paper xrays what it takes to assume leadership and identified barriers to youth emergence.

This document discusses leadership development in Africa, focusing on the strengths of leaders in three regions - West Africa, Southern Africa, and Egypt.

However, there are some differences, such as leaders in Southern Africa being seen as more decisive and composed than those in West Africa and Egypt. The document advocates for leadership development programs to help unlock potential and address challenges like leading diverse teams and complex environments.

May be they are not given the proper education”.
