Men of Honour

At Men of Honour, our mission is to inspire and nurture the development of character, responsibility, and integrity in young people, with a special focus on adolescent boys and young men. We believe that by instilling these core values at a critical stage in their lives, we are not only shaping responsible and ethical individuals but also creating future leaders who can positively impact their communities. Character development serves as the foundation upon which they can build resilience and face the challenges that adolescence brings. We place a special emphasis on adolescent boys and young men because they often face unique pressures, including societal expectations, peer influences, and a lack of positive role models. Through mentorship programs, community engagement, and skill-building activities, Men of Honour provides these boys with the tools they need to take responsibility for their actions, make sound decisions, and develop a strong sense of personal integrity. By encouraging accountability and promoting ethical behaviour, we aim to guide them towards becoming respectful, empathetic, and responsible citizens. Ultimately, our mission is not just about shaping individuals, but also about building stronger communities. By fostering integrity, responsibility, and leadership in adolescent boys and young men, Men of Honour is contributing to a more just and equitable society. We believe that boys and young men who are empowered with these values will go on to be change-makers, helping to reduce societal issues such as crime, gender-based violence, and substance abuse, and creating lasting, positive change.

TheBoardroom Africa Foundation

Good governance ensures accountability, fairness, and transparency throughout our social, governmental, and business systems. On the African continent, women are underrepresented at every level in the workplace, especially in senior leadership roles. According to the UN, this type of unequal treatment of women in the workplace has cost Sub-Saharan Africa approximately $105bn and has significant implications on the utilization of the continents full human capital potential and achievement of its development goals. The Boardroom Africa was borne out of these realities. We champion female leadership on a pan-African level by building a network of women leaders who collectively dispel the myth that there aren't enough qualified women to support the growth of the continent. We help build role models at the top to change the way organizations are led through our educational content. We offer a board training program for women across the continent and to date, we've trained 64+ women. We also have built a community of over 1,000 women on the continent leading change and deliver open webinars, trainings, and meetups to upskill this network. Finally, we've conducted publicly released research on 13 African countries to assess the gender gap in their companies. We want to shift the demand by ensuring society realizes the benefits of increased female participation in leadership, and create an ecosystem of women who can go into the world and inspire others.

AWI Foundation

Advancing Women in Investing (AWI) is a collaborative of more than 100 first-time and emerging female capital movers investing in emerging and frontier markets. Our long-term goal is to create a movement of change to democratize access to funding and opportunity for female investment vehicles managers (IVMs). Female investment professionals represent only 8% of all senior positions in venture capital and private equity firms in Africa and when then they strike out on their own, they struggle to raise capital. AWI was initially founded as a discussion group over WhatsApp to provide support and networking opportunities for members on the journey to start and raise capital for investment vehicles focused on sub-Saharan Africa. The organization has expanded its geography to include emerging markets in Africa, Asia and the Middle East and now helps to unlock channels to capital, skill building, tools and other resources that are currently very limited in the market. We accelerate the development and growth of these talented women to ensure diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the investing ecosystem.
