Description
Akili Dada is an international Non-profit organization dedicated to ensuring that the next generation of Africa's leaders includes women from diverse economic backgrounds. Working in Kenya, we achieve this by:
* Providing scholarships and leadership training to bright young women scholars from impoverished families.
* Connecting these future leaders to a growing network of peers and professional Kenyan women who serve as mentors.
We believe that:
* Justice is served when there is a diversity of leaders’ voices at the policy making table.
* That access to education and leadership training is critical to poor women’s ability to participate in the policy making process as leaders.
