You might agree with me that building a strong leader also takes one inner desire of going further, educating himself, and push what one desires to limit. Last year through the essay competition trained and supported 20 young professionals from East and Southern Africa to become the champions of Liberty. It is within our agenda to see more leaders are getting to the level of standing themselves, defending and adopting Liberty as a life philosophy.
We encourage all young professionals from the ages of 18-30 to take part in the essay competition that is to be organized every year. The top 20 winners who will be selected through various stages will attend the virtual young professional Colloquium with famous Journalists, academicians, and scholars of the world such as Prof Brian, Prof Ken Schoolland, and Rejoice Ngwenya. The top winning essay will be published on our media, other websites, blogs, and also published in the local newsletter of the top country include Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda. We also have special packages for the top 20 winners, include special training and mentorship.
