Africa’s young, emerging leadership is made up of people who have a passion and vision for the continent. Harnessed well, they will ensure each African country benefits from an array of human capital that can take the continent forward.
But many challenges stand in their way – and it’s essential that we give our children and youth the tools to overcome them. Early investments in young children are proven to be cost-effective and have a higher rate of return than later remedial interventions for older children or adults. This makes early childhood development a strategic investment.
