ASANTE AFRICA

Over the last 15 years, we have learned, refined, and strengthened our model based on evidence, external evaluations, and ongoing feedback from the youth we serve and their communities... As we look to the future, monitoring and evaluation remains central to our growth model. So too does engagement at the local level. Guided by the inputs of our in-country teams and local youth leaders, by 2025, our programs will empower 1,600,000 young people in rural East Africa with skills and knowledge to become effective change agents... Initially rooted in two small villages in Kenya and Tanzania, Asante Africa's primary focus centered on advancing girls' education. However, the co-founders realized the imperative need for a multifaceted, systemic solution driven by local communities. This realization prompted the development of age-appropriate life skills, leadership training, and hands-on entrepreneurial initiatives tailored for primary and secondary school youth.
