Our Mission
The Ugwumba Leadership Center was established to equip young people and women from Africa with the leadership and enterprise development skills they need to compete favourably with their peers at the global stage.
We are driven by passion…
We see our investments in the lives of young people across the continent as our own contributions to the global poverty reduction and economic development policies in Africa.
The success stories we hear from past Ugwumba Fellows keep us doing more because that is the only way to express our love for our people.

Board of Trustees
Our board is made up of professionals, development experts and technocrats who share in our mission and objectives of raising a new generation of young leaders and business Chief Executives for the African continent.
