CEO's Year-End Message
 Dear Friends of AFLI,
As 2018 draws to an end, I’d like to thank you all for your support of AFLI and our flagship programme, the Archbishop Tutu Leadership Programme.
2018 was a year of highs and lows. Amongst the highs, we unveiled our inaugural AFLI Global Advisory Board of eminent leaders to help us take AFLI to its next level of growth and impact. This is our first story in this edition of the newsletter.
AFLI, as a grantee of the Ford Foundation, published and launched a seminal report titled, An Abundance of Young African Leaders but no Seat at the Table which mapped 105 leadership initiatives focused on young Africans. Whilst Africa is the youngest continent, young leaders are conspicuously missing at important deliberations and at the table. The report intends to initiate a dialogue about the opening up of spaces to allow young leaders to be part of the processes of co-creating the Africa we all want to see and deserve.
The Fellows in their professional capacities continue to work tirelessly contributing to a better Africa. The prolific Prof. Landry Signe, a 2015 Fellow, launched his latest installment, a book titled African Development, African Transformation: How Institutions Shape Development Strategy; whilst Prof. Yap Boum II, a 2017 Fellow, has displayed enormous courage working at the forefront of an Ebola outbreak, testing an experimental vaccine in the remote parts of the DRC.
We also witnessed a number of Tutu Fellows collaborating with each other. These collaborations have great personal significance for me as they represent the realization of the vast transformative potential that lies within our alumni network. They really do make my job worthwhile! I don’t take these collaborations for granted as I am keenly aware of how busy Fellows are in their professional capacities and, whatever commitments they undertake with other Tutu Fellows, are over and above their day jobs. Also, these collaborations are perfectly aligned with the vision of the AFLI founders, Sean Lance and Peter Wilson, which was to develop a network of new, ethical African leaders who, together, would drive the transformation of Africa. An example of such a collaboration is the agricultural training programme initiated by Martin Mbaya of Strathmore Business School and Osman Nuradin, VP AGCO. That agriculture project is now yielding fruit (yes, pun intended! 😊) as agricultural students were deployed to four AGCO locations – Kenya, the US, Zambia, and South Africa – for the practical module.
In order to successfully complete the Fellowship and become a Tutu Fellow, participants must initiate a Community Project – this, in keeping with the servant leadership ethos of the programme. Samuel Kariuki, CFO of Centum and a 2017 Fellow, conceptualized and rolled out an impressive agricultural project that has rejuvenated communities in rural Kenya and is now providing livelihoods. Sam secured off-take for the produce.
A very low point in 2018 was the arrest of 2016 Tutu Fellow, Peter Biar Ajak by South Sudan's National Security Service. Peter remains in custody and has not been charged despite concerted and ongoing efforts from across the globe to secure his release.
Our 2019 nominations process has just closed and we are now looking forward to receiving applications by January 15, 2019. The 2019 Archbishop Tutu Leadership Programme cohort will be announced in March.
I wish you all a pleasant and restful year-end break and all the very best for 2019!
Warm regards,
Jackie

New hires strengthen AFLI's capacity
 AFLI tended to function as a virtual organisation with contracted experts, volunteers and freelancers in different locations, and, to its credit, has achieved tremendous success with very few resources. AFLI punches significantly above its weight. Whilst admirable, this is not sustainable.
In light of funding we have received, we have begun bolstering our on-the-ground staff to ensure long-term sustainability. We hired an Alumni Officer, Charles Sidambe, who started in February, and a Programme Officer, Jessica Breda, who joined us in October. To support and implement the grant goals of Project Pakati, AFLI hired two staff. Bridgette Mdangayi started as the Project Manager in March and Josias Ambeu, her Project Associate, started in May.

Essay - Defending democracy in Tanzania
 2006 Tutu Fellow Aidan Eyakuze warns Tanzanianians in this essay that the loss of open discourse could lead to a breakdown of Tanzania's ability to be fully democratic.

Essay - Africa does not need 'strong leaders'
 2018 Tutu Fellow Chude Jideonwo argues that Africa needs fewer 'strong leaders' and instead needs effective leaders. African strongmen have taken countries down oppressive pathways, silencing dissent with impunity, promoting a climate of fear, hunting down political opponents, intimidating rivals, tying down the press, and ensuring an electoral process that guarantee victory. Instead, what Africa needs are effective leaders who deploy resources to allow others flourish in the same way we want to flourish.

Essay: From being to doing to handing over
 2017 Tutu Fellow Dirk Holshausen says leadership has three elements. The first element – servant leadership - explores what a leader must ‘be’ and the attitude and approach they should have. The second – shared vision – looks at what a leader should ‘do’ and highlights a common fundamental that is core to all great leaders, but somehow lacking in too many of our countries and companies. The final element – succession planning – looks beyond the leader, to what comes next.

Essay: Why do we blame women for rape?
 2014 Tutu Fellow Linda Kasonde says there is always an outcry when a child gets raped. No one can fathom that a child would ever want to be raped, and when it happens, no one blames them for it. But when it comes to women, it is a different story. It becomes about sex. In this essay, she examines false equivalence around rape, which has always been about power and domination.
|
|
Essay: Culture is an excuse for poor leadership in Africa
 2017 Tutu Fellow Mimi Kalinda looks at the use of African 'culture' as an excuse for poor leadership. She starts out with the example of a leader in public office who marries multiple times. On a typical day, he could easily wake up in one home, have lunch in another, and sleep at his third wife’s house. He says it’s part of his “culture”. The demands of his personal life are exhausting, yet he is supposed to solve his country's most complex problems. She argues that the time has come for Africans to examine critically the lives of their leaders to ensure elected leaders conduct themselves in ways they can afford on a public servant’s salary and time.

Pakati puts out call for young change makers
