Every year The African Leadership Institute (AFLI) searches for the best up and coming or already established young leaders from Africa who are taken through a gruelling but praise-worthy programme called the “Archbishop Desmond Tutu Fellowship”.
The 2019 Tutu Fellowship candidates have been named. AFLI once again, has a very strong cohort of emerging African leaders for the prestigious Tutu Leadership Fellowship for 2019.

Including the candidates nominated by their sponsoring organisations, the candidates represent 12 different African countries, ranging in age 25 to 39 years of age, and span several industries. The selected candidates demonstrate the incredible wealth and breadth of leadership talent that exists in Africa’s youth.
