Moremi Initiative for Women’s Leadership in Africa (Moremi Initiative)
is pleased to announce its call for applications for the 2012 Moremi
Leadership Empowerment and Development (MILEAD) Fellows Program- to
identify Africa’s most promising young women leaders.

The MILEAD Fellows Program is a one-year leadership development
program designed to identify, develop and promote emerging young
African Women leaders to attain and succeed in leadership in their
community and Africa as a whole.

The program targets dynamic young women interested in developing
transformational leadership skills that help them tackle issues
affecting women in their communities and society as a whole- by
equipping them with the world class knowledge, skills, values and
networks they need to succeed as 21st century women leaders.
Applications are welcome from young African women living in Africa and
the Diaspora.

The MILEAD Fellowship will be awarded to 25 outstanding young women
with exceptional qualities who have exhibited leadership potential in
their community, organization, and/or profession. To be eligible for
the one-year program, an applicant must be African, living on the
continent or in the Diaspora; agree to participate in all required
activities related to MILEAD- including a three-week residential
Summer Institute in Ghana; and commit to a community change project.
Applicant must be between 19 – 25 years of age. Specific requirements
of the program and related dates are outlined in the application
package. Please review program and application guidelines carefully,
before completing your application.

Please note that this is not a full-time fellowship. Selected
candidates may remain full time students or work full time for the
program duration, except during the 3–week summer institute. The
3-week summer institute is an intensive and full-time residential
program and all fellows will be required to attend. The rest of the
program involves community-based, online and other distance
activities.

We invite you to share this application information with the most
promising young African women leaders you know- who have the potential
to help transform Africa.
