The Ethical Leadership program aims at fostering capacity building and enhancing Ethical leadership qualities at the international system and particularly among the current and future generation of African Leaders.
The overall goal is to prepare future leaders and decision makers as well young leaders to acquire ethical tools and concepts to prepare themselves to face current and future challenges. The very importance of a dynamic and modern society requires both present and aspiring Leaders to be equipped with the necessary tools for understanding the complexity and interrelatedness of the different sectors in their society.
AfricanBIB is at the forefront of creating an African Future Leadership Fellowship, where emerging Leaders are gradually introduced to the ethics and values of responsibility, good governance, self-determined and entrepreneurial spiritedness in development. This concept does not claim to negate the traditional African institutional values and mechanisms, rather it explore the possibility of incorporating essential ideas of tradition into the evolving conditions of modernity for the articulation of the future.
The training programme aims at:
• Educating young leaders on the following topics: globalization and global ethics, ethical leadership, good governance, anti-corruption mechanisms, business ethics.
• Encouraging young people to identify existing moral problems in their communities and come up with solutions as to how they could be dealt with.
• Fostering an exchange of ideas between young leaders of Cameroon, Central Africa and the WCGE.
• Creating a regional network of young leaders focusing on ethical leadership in Africa with Cameroon as the point of commencement.
