2023 AFRICAN CIVIC ENGAGEMENT SUMMIT

Congratulations to the 52 trainees who participated in the African Civic
Engagement Academy (ACEA) program! They received certificates of completion
after a six-month training and networking program for mid-career NGO and public
sector leaders across sub-Saharan Africa. (via U.S. Embassy in Zimbabwe)


WHO IS THE ACEA INTENDED FOR? 

The Academy is intended for mid-career individuals with demonstrated leadership
experience in NGO, non-profit, or public sector roles. Space is limited and
applications are competitive.

Participants will:

 * Be between the ages of 30 and 45 as of January 1, 2022.
 * Serve in a leadership role with a civil society organization (including NGOs
   and non-profit community organizations) or a government unit responsible for
   engaging with the public.
 * Have a demonstrated record of leading civic engagement efforts, including
   projects and programs to advocate, engage, and communicate in an inclusive
   way.


INSTRUCTION

Selected participants will receive online instruction and participate in peer
discussions organized into five courses:

 * Principles of Civic Engagement, including strategies for NGO, non-profit, and
   government sector leaders to advocate and engage with one another.
 * Political Inclusion, covering steps that can be taken to improve the
   political and social inclusion of underrepresented communities.
 * Media Management, including the role of old and new media as a bridge between
   government and civil society.
 * Non-Profit Management, focusing on key management skills relevant to
   community-facing organizations (including strategic planning, supervisory
   skills, giving feedback, and developing an inclusive organizational culture).
 * Program Design, Implementation, and Evaluation, helping you to develop and
   implement participatory projects relevant to civil society (including program
   design, stakeholder engagement, needs assessment, monitoring and evaluation,
   and grant writing).

Participants will also be exposed to leadership development and strategic
planning concepts. All participants will develop a peer-mentored Civic
Engagement Action Plan, where they identify steps to bring a civic engagement
project to life in their community or government unit.


CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION

Participants who successfully complete the ACEA coursework and submit a Civic
Engagement Action Plan will receive a digital Certificate of Completion from the
University of Georgia which may be displayed as a digital badge.


NETWORK WITH NGO AND PUBLIC SECTOR LEADERS ACROSS SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA

Each ACEA component is accompanied by peer discussion in French, Portuguese, and
English.

Through these discussions, participants will be able to make new connections and
exchange views with peers from across sub-Saharan Africa while they develop
their Civic Engagement Action Plan, gaining valuable input into the project they
will propose for their own organization or public sector unit.

At the conclusion of the Academy, up to 60 participants will be selected for an
in-person African Civic Engagement Summit in 2023 where they will meet, network,
and share perspectives on approaches to improved civic engagement in their
communities.
