About the Conference

The upcoming conference, arriving at a pivotal moment, emphasizes the critical role of youth leadership in driving economic growth and sustainable development across Africa. A key highlight will be the launch of the MWF at 10 Free Trade Zone App called Ubuntu Trades, an innovative platform designed to support Mandela Washington Fellows in exploring trade opportunities within the AfCFTA. This app, along with the conference, aims to equip young leaders with the necessary tools, resources, and guidance to bridge the gap between leadership, economic growth, and sustainable development.
