Our Branches
With youth being the present and future of Africa, an important part of YALDA’s networking system is reaching out to these young leaders through its various branches – these tend to be set up primarily at universities.
YALDA has been able to set up over 25 branches ranging from South Africa all the way to the United States. Despite the universities being at different developmental stages, they have all recruited young members from their respective communities as well as professionals to act as mentors for their members. Furthermore, on campus events and workshops have been held in order to empower communities and their upcoming leaders.
