Agenda 2063 provides a long-term vision for The Africa We Want. Translating that vision into reality requires more than knowledge of the continental framework. It requires people across Africa and beyond to recognize the Power Spaces available to them and deliberately use those spaces to create value.
Agenda 2063 in Power Spaces - Cohort 3 will provide participants with a structured seven-week leadership journey.
Participants progressively develop seven leadership tools:
1. Contribution Statement - What value do I create?
Participants locate themselves within Africa's transformation and identify the value they create through their Power Space.
2. Moonshot - What future am I committed to creating?
Participants articulate a sufficiently consequential future to challenge the gravitational pull of present circumstances.
3. Delivery - What must change?
Participants identify the critical shifts required between present reality and their desired future.
4. Leadership Values - Who must I be?
Participants identify the values required to guide consequential choices during the journey.
5. Leadership Routines - What must I repeatedly do?
Participants translate intention into repeated practices capable of accumulating into results.
6. Letter from the Future - What does life look like because I succeeded?
Participants experience their desired future as a lived reality and use that future to reconsider present choices.
7. Future Review - What have I learned - and what should I now revise?
Participants develop the practice of Return → Review → Revise → Recommit, enabling them to continue using the tools after the formal traineeship ends.
The programme therefore seeks to become more than a seven-week training experience. It is designed as a leadership practice for the journey to 2063. Participants retain their Leadership Portfolio and Letter from the Future and are encouraged to return to them periodically as their experience, capabilities and Power Spaces evolve. This seven-tool architecture is explicit in the Reader's final synthesis.
Cohort 3 will also contribute to improving and testing the learning materials, facilitation approaches and participant experience required to make this practice accessible to increasingly large numbers of people.
Online Volunteers will experience learning Agenda 2063 in Power Spaces - Cohort 3. The Online Volunteers will:
1- Study and become familiar with the Agenda 2063 in Power Spaces learning materials, including the Reader and associated learning resources.
2- Support participant engagement during the seven-week traineeship, including understanding the weekly concepts, questions and exercises.
3- Engage in small-group learning conversations, where assigned, encouraging participants to connect the tools to their own Power Spaces rather than simply reproduce course content.
4- Contribute to a structured end-of-cohort review, identifying what worked and what could strengthen future cohorts.
Online Volunteers will work remotely.
The assignment does not require volunteers to be experts on every aspect of Agenda 2063. It requires curiosity, disciplined engagement with the provided materials, willingness to learn, and the ability to support other people to translate ideas into their own contexts.
