Young Life Africa

Since its inception in 2018, the Women's Leadership Accelerator has sparked an extraordinary 110% growth in the number of women serving on Young Life staff across Africa! ?????? In cultures where women’s voices are often marginalized, this transformative program is equipping key female leaders in Young Life Africa with the tools to thrive. Through professional development, enhanced leadership skills, and a deepened confidence in God’s purpose for their lives, these women are stepping boldly into their calling, inspiring change, and shaping the future of ministry. #womeninleadership #ylafrica #womenshistorymonth

This week in honor of Women's History Month, we introduce you to Samantha, a new leader in Harare, Zimbabwe.

Spoiler alert — Samantha can’t wait to impact other girls in her neighborhood just like her leader did for her! #women #leadership #womenshistorymonth ?? ??

We are kicking off Women's History Month with a spotlight on the Women's Leadership Accelerator! Created to be a countercultural act of love, truth, and confidence, the program empowers women across Africa, India, and the Middle East to know and understand their leadership abilities within their roles and the potential to develop new skills. As a result of the program, thousands of women across these areas of the world are built up in leadership at every level of the mission. With new engagement strategies, all leaders – both men and women – have the vision and tools to reach more young women and to help them grow the call that God has placed on their lives.?????↗????? Follow along this month as we highlight some of the key women in our mission!

At Young Life Africa, we recognize the invaluable role women play in shaping the future of our communities. Women bring unique perspectives, leadership, and dedication to their work, and we are proud to have them as key contributors to the mission. By investing in their development and providing opportunities for growth, we aim to create a strong network of female leaders who inspire and lead by example. We’re excited to continue supporting women who are passionate about making a difference and are looking forward to seeing the impact of their leadership across the continent! ?? ?? ?? https://lnkd.in/gj5KGMmc
