Unlocking Africa’s Potential: Empowering Youth, Women, and Innovators

Africa is home to the world’s youngest population, but millions of children and youth are held back by poverty, lack of education, and limited access to opportunities. Women remain underrepresented in leadership roles, especially in technology and business, where innovation is driving the global economy forward. Here’s why we’re taking action.
