Applications are invited for the AIIDEV Africa SDGs Mentorship Programme 2024. This is a seven-month fellowship that seeks to provide mentorship to young African professionals to enable them to become champions of sustainable development in their respective countries. The programme is in line with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and aims to empower the next generation of African leaders with the skills, knowledge, and networks needed to drive sustainable development across the continent. The goal of the Africa SDGs Mentorship Programme is to equip young African professionals to become champions of sustainable development in their respective countries.
