How can young Africans be changemakers in the workplace of the 21st Century?

Young people in sub-Saharan Africa are struggling to translate their skills into productive employment. Mastering multiplication tables and learning to read a newspaper won't be enough, even with greater access to capital or mentorship support. Young leaders must be able to apply skills like leadership, teamwork, creativity, and empathy in order to take charge of their futures as African changemakers. How can they learn these skills?
 
On October 9th, we bring a live broadcast of a moderated conversation featuring two experts who empower young Africans to become leaders and changemakers.
