The Julius Nyerere Leadership Centre (JNLC) has, since its inception, championed youth empowerment, ethical leadership, and civic engagement. Grounded in Mwalimu Julius Kambarage Nyerere’s philosophy of servant leadership and self-reliance, JNLC seeks to nurture leaders who act with integrity, empathy, and foresight in addressing Africa’s contemporary challenges.

Youth Leadership for Sustainability – Training and Roundtable Conversations aims to leverage on previous leadership training successes to build the capacity of emerging young leaders — particularly young women and men to play transformative roles in advancing sustainable development, peace, and inclusive governance in Uganda. Previous training have been conducted in 4 regions, Central (Kampala), North (Gulu), Eastern (Mbale) and Western (Mbarara)
