GAIN Youth Summit is a unique platform that primarily targets the youth as the key actors in the development agenda of the African continent. The summit convenes young leaders from Africa and the Diaspora and also promotes their impact.
A global youth event for discourse, dialogue and insightful engagement where young leaders learn from and engage with global leaders from multinationals, development institutions, CSOs, public and private organizations.
GAIN focuses on channeling the energy and enthusiasm of the youth to positive ends by empowering them and building their capacities to drive positive personal, community, national and continental level developmental goals. An opportunity to build alliances, networks and promote multi-level collaboration for impact.
The GAIN Youth Summit empowers key stakeholders with information, channels and tools to promote collaborative action for youth employment, development and entrepreneurship. It features keynote speeches, panel discussions, workshops and networking sessions.
The GAIN Youth Summit is for the youth, students, entrepreneurs, investors, leaders, institutions, organizations, civil society and all who are passionate about development and the youths.
