CELBMD Africa Initiative for Training and Skills Development aim at accelerating Youth Empowerment and Development across Africa for sustainable growth in Africa. CELBMD Africa Initiative is designed to point young people in the right direction to enable them play constructive quota in continent/nation building. We believe in the power of youths. To promote sustainable development and economic empowerment in Africa, African leaders as a matter of now must implement new educational models unlike the one that has been existing with little or no transformation effect. To achieve this we are focusing on 18 African countries in Sub Saharan Africa

CELBMD Africa initiative empowers young entrepreneurs, young professionals and leaders with the information, skills and tools they need to pursue Business and careers with purpose and determination. We identify talented young people in rural, semi-urban, urban areas and cities through recruitment and selection processes in universities, churches and schools. We also use social media to attract talent, then we build capacity of young people on soft, technical skills that will better equip them for decent work. We build capacity of young people and invest in their future, tapping into their potential to invest in a generation of young ethical leaders. In partnership with the private sector, academic institutions, schools, civil society organizations etc CELBMD Africa Initiative is building world class young professionals, business men, entrepreneurs, and leaders.
