Grassroots is Strengthening Governance in Africa

Grassroots has been working with the four-year Africa Board Fellowship (ABF) as the governance expert since the program began in 2015. Over the past six months, Grassroots has been engaging with the fellows from the first and second cohorts composed of board members and CEOs on the program’s virtual platform and leading two virtual dialogues on governance. Last week, Paul DiLeo joined the program’s seasoned faculty, advisors, and subject experts in Cape Town for a peer learning seminar for the second cohort and to welcome the third cohort of fellows to the program. The third cohort is comprised of 37 board members and CEOs from 13 institutions throughout 9 countries in sub- Saharan Africa.
