The Africa Emerging Leaders Conference (ELC) is an annual event that brings together young people from across Africa to interact with leaders and policy makers on current global issues. The 2016 Africa Emerging Leaders Conference (ELC) is the seventh to be organised by World Youth Alliance Africa.
The Emerging Leaders Conference (ELC) is designed for young people and offers discussions, lectures, and training on topics relevant to ongoing international policy debates. The Emerging Leaders Conference happens every year in the following regions: Africa, Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, Middle East, North America. Each WYA Region holds a local ELC.
The conference will be conducted in English.
The 2016 conference will take place at Strathmore University, Nairobi, Kenya from Tuesday 8th to Thursday 10th November, 2016.
Theme
The theme for the 2016 ELC is Population and Environment : Sharing Youth Innovation and Best Practices.
Africa’s youth make up more than 75% of Africa’s population. The youth are the future of Africa and we need to rise up and take charge of societies around us, taking active part in the life of society. We need to be empowered in education that directly develops the best in us, ethics, and skills in order to flourish and reach our full potential, and thereby guarantee free and just societies.
