The Centre for Social Awareness, Advocacy and Ethics (CSAAEINC) invites applications for the 2018 Emerging Leaders Project (ELP). The aim of the program is to raise a new generation of Nigerian leaders imbued with strong morals and skill set necessary to navigate Nigeria out of poverty and underdevelopment.
In 2013, CSAAEINC launched the Emerging African Leaders Program (ELP) to respond to Africa’s failure of leadership. The 3-year program is designed to channel young people into activities that develop leaders of character; cultivate a spirit of entrepreneurship; promote good governance, transparency and accountability in government; and encourage mentorship among African youths. ELP focuses on emerging state and non-state actors generally considered key to development. Upon completion of ELP, mentors evaluate progress and induct successful mentees into the Centre’s Network of Effective African Leaders (NEAL).
Upon completion of the 3-year ELP, mentors evaluate progress and promote successful ELP graduates to the Centre’s Network of Effective African Leaders (NEAL). These effective leaders are supported by CSAAE to run for offices, serve in government, initiate enterprises and shape public policies. They bear on each other on good governance, mentor emerging leaders at CSAAE and champion social impact projects in Africa.
