Please Join a Conference Call on President Obama’s Young African Leader’s Initiative (YALI)

 

Senior U.S. Government officials on the call will provide an update on the President’s Young African Leader’s Initiative (YALI) in advance of President Obama’s travel to Africa this summer and will outline how U.S. organizations can be active partners in advancing the future goals of YALI.

 

The Young African Leaders Initiative is a signature effort to invest in the next generation of African leaders. Nearly 1 in 3 Africans are between the ages of 10 and 24, and approximately 60 percent of Africa’s total population is below the age of 35. President Obama launched YALI in 2010 to support young African leaders as they spur growth and prosperity, strengthen democratic governance, and enhance peace and security across Africa.

This call is hosted by: The White House, U.S. Agency for International Development, and U.S. Department of State.
