During the 2022 APN Assembly that was anchored on the theme ‘African Philanthropy: Driving Change,’ one of the key areas of focus that drove my attention was the Intergenerational Dialogue that took place on the day of the youth session. The conversation was timely, exhilarating and futuristic in regards to how we can protect and sustain the future of African philanthropy. In the opening phase of the youth segment, being an ardent supporter of youth development on the continent, APN Executive Director Dr. Stigmata Tenga emphasized on the relevance of such platforms because they are the much-needed space we need for youth leadership to be unveiled and appreciated. As the youth and the Assembly enjoyed an entertainment break dancing to Bob Marley’s ‘One Love’, it was evident that the energy that youth bring to the room is unmatched and worth celebrating.
