YA is a continental umbrella organization comprised of four Regional Leadership Centers (RLC\u2019s). The four RLCs, located at African institutions of higher education in Ghana, Kenya, Senegal and South Africa, offer both in-person and online training. The RLCs are open to young leaders between the ages of 18-35 and serve as a place for regional collaboration driven by these young leaders who all have one agenda\u2026to make an impact that matters in their communities.<\/p>\n<p>The RLCs are located in Sub-Saharan Africa, drawing participants from a total of 49 countries in the continent, and ensuring diversity of language, culture and social economic background. Youth from these countries converge and interact during intensive training which aims to boost courage, innovation, Pan Africanism, diversity &amp; social inclusion, change making and design thinking. The centers have empowered over 20,000 young leaders to date. YALI delivers a holistic curriculum that develops and supports a professional network of uniquely trained, highly qualified leaders in three tracks of study; motivates participants to be a positive force for transformational change in their communities; and encourages alumni to give back through training other leaders. For the first time ever, the four RLCs, under YALI Africa, are coming together to deliver a continental wide training program, effectively bringing young people from the 49 countries together under one venue for learning.<\/p>\n<p>YALI Africa will provide core training in contemporary African issues, as well as specialized training in three tracks of study: Business and Entrepreneurship; Civic Leadership and Public Management. The inaugural cohort will take place from August 23 \u2013 October 15, 2021.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"httpsss:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- 2021 --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4564014896468666\" data-ad-slot=\"9068680313\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p>The Program Encourages Applications From:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Individuals that represent and advocate for the rights of sexual minorities<br \/>\n\u2022 Rural based and economically disadvantaged young leaders<br \/>\n\u2022 People who are HIV positive or who are living with AIDS<br \/>\n\u2022 Young leaders with disabilities \u2022 English language proficiency<br \/>\n\u2022 Other minority groups \u2022 Women<\/p>\n<p>APPLICATION CRITERIA<br \/>\n\u2022 Age (18-35) \u2022 Demonstrated commitment to positively impact their communities, countries, and the African continent<br \/>\n\u2022 Proven experience and track record in Public Management, Business and Entrepreneurship, or Civic Leadership<br \/>\n\u2022 Citizen of : Sub Saharan Africa \u2022 Ability to commit to an 8 \u2013 week online program<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"httpss:\/\/yaliwestafrica.net\/rlc\/index.php\/registernowopen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">West\u00a0Africa\u00a0applicants<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"httpsss:\/\/forms.office.com\/Pages\/ResponsePage.aspx?id=jIuayqM-mUekPlUQOY56O35326qeyYtJkXlSatRZ2i1UOFJLNDYxV1pZN1U5MlBYSE8yUThFOU1VMS4u\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Southern\u00a0Africa\u00a0applicants<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"httpsss:\/\/www.yalieastafrica.org\/registration\/public\/index.php\/user\/signup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">East\u00a0Africa\u00a0applicants<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><script async src=\"httpsss:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- 2021 --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4564014896468666\" data-ad-slot=\"9068680313\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p>For More Information:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"httpsss:\/\/yali.state.gov\/rlc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">CLICK HERE TO&#8212;&#8211;&gt;&gt;&gt;Visit the Official Webpage of the YALI Africa-wide Online Program<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fully Funded YALI Africa-wide Online Program 2021 for emerging young African Leaders YOU MAY ALSO APPLY FOR Fully Funded Nuffic Scholarships 2022 for Short Training Courses at the Hague Academy in the Netherlands Fully Funded RNTC Media and Journalism Scholarships 2022\/2023 for media Professionals \u2013 The Netherlands Application Deadline: June 16th 2021 YALI Africa\u00a0(YA) is [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20613","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-scholarships"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20613","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20613"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20613\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20613"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20613"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unistoretz.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20613"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
