The Leadership, Effectiveness, Accountability, and Professionalism (LEAP) Africa has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to nurturing innovation and fostering positive change in Nigeria and Africa at large. It said over 279 social innovators had so far been supported.
Board Chair, LEAP Africa, Clare Omatseye, said the organisation has stayed true to its mission to equip a new cadre of African leaders to positively impact society.
Speaking at the 10th-anniversary edition of its flagship initiative, the Social Innovators Programme and Awards (SIPA) 2023, with the theme: “Maximizing Africa’s Potential Through Disruptive Leadership and Innovation” in Abuja, she said LEAP Africa envisions another decade of groundbreaking ideas, collaboration, and social impact.
She said, “Today, as we gather here, we not only celebrate the milestone of our 10th-year anniversary but also the collective achievements of countless social innovators who have been part of this incredible journey.
“The Social Innovators Programme has become a platform that not only showcases the exceptional work of young entrepreneurs but also inspires and empowers future generations of change-makers in Africa, and we are not only celebrating the past but also looking forward to the future.”
