Global Leading Light Initiatives (GLLI) is a registered Non-Profit driven by a strong believe that collective prosperity can be achieved in Africa by providing youths with future-proof skills

          Why we exist 

As automation and Information and Communications Technologies continue to disrupt the labour market, many jobs are at risk of disappearing. This would increase unemployment, resulting in  poverty and anchor inequalities in Africa.  

Graduate unemployment in South Africa is on the rise, while there is a skill shortage in fields such as software development, web development, network and information security web (www.advtech.co.za)

GLLI seeks to disrupt the cycle of poverty in disadvantaged communities  by addressing this skills gap right from

• STEAMED Education
• Workforce development
• Entrepreneurship development
• Leadership development 

To catalyze economic growth in disadvantaged communities in Africa by enabling one million young people to access decent jobs and create better living conditions for themselves, their families and communities. 

To provide future-proof skills and platforms to support the development and nurturing of young innovative leaders in Africa.  

We aim to create a pool of Tech entrepreneurs, engineers, leaders and professionals who will provide innovative solutions to the challenges their communities face.
