Akili Dada seeks the services of a qualified consultant or consultancy firm to carry out a 5- year evaluation of our fellowship program that targets young women in the social enterprise
and social change sectors. Akili Dada Fellows are spread across the following East African countries: Kenya, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda.
About the Fellowship Program
Akili Dada’s fellowship program grows out of our belief that African women, especially those from underserved communities, are best positioned to design solutions to the
challenges facing them. The overarching goal of the program is to build the capacity of some of the continent’s most innovative young women change makers to drive solutions to some of the biggest challenges facing African society.
The program awards yearlong fellowships to young women leaders engaged in social change projects of their design. The program serves as an incubator providing financial, intellectual, mentoring, and networking resources to young women as they grow their projects to scale and sustainability.
The program was created in direct response to the absence of African women among the ranks of those celebrated in existing social entrepreneurship incubators.
