About LEAP Africa

LEAP Africa is a youth-focused leadership development organization committed to raising leaders who will transform Africa; through interventions for young people, that bridges the gap in five areas: Education, Entrepreneurship, Employability, Active Citizenship and Health and Wellbeing (3Es+AH). As a mission driven organization, we recognize that youth leadership and inclusion is critical to nation building and wealth creation. Our cutting-edge programmatic thrusts inspire and empower young people, changing their mindset, to lead ethically and motivating them to deliver positive change in their communities; while also supporting social entrepreneurs to build systems and structures that are crucial for business sustainability, thereby contributing to individual, social and national development. Through these areas we drive upward social mobility. Our core and special programmes aim to tackle problems across these five programmatic focus areas; each programme aims to solve one or more of these challenges at a time. LEAP Africa actively contributes to the body of knowledge leveraging our strategic direction of ecosystem building, thought leadership and advocacy.
