Our 2023 Annual Report highlights our continued dedication to increasing economic opportunities for youth in Africa. One significant development outlined in the report is the creation and publication of criteria guiding our approach in grantmaking decisions. These criteria reflect a shift towards evaluating an organization's capacity to generate economic opportunities for young people, focusing on work experiences, confidence-building, and promoting youth agency at the beginning of their careers.
With a spotlight on partnerships, and proven impact, our report reflects our commitment to driving meaningful change. Explore the impactful stories of organizations like the African Leadership Academy, and Kliptown Youth Program, all aimed at bridging the gap between education and employment for young African.
