At African Leadership Academy you will befriend the most outstanding young people from 54
African countries and around the world. Like you, these young leaders will have already
accomplished extraordinary things in their lives. You might play a pick-up game of soccer with a
young man from Kenya who founded and runs his own dramatic arts organization to educate the
community about HIV/AIDS, or live in a dorm room with a young Zimbabwean woman who started a
small-scale chicken and agricultural farm to support a needy family of AIDS orphans in her
neighborhood.
