Mentorship is at the heart of AMINA’s mission. The Initiative connects elder matriarchs—respected for their wisdom, resilience, and cultural knowledge—with younger women and girls seeking role models in leadership and life. This intergenerational exchange builds resilience, preserves cultural values, and ensures continuity of African heritage while equipping emerging leaders with skills to thrive in modern contexts. Through structured mentorship programs, capacity-building sessions, and storytelling, AMINA nurtures courage, vision, and responsibility in the next generation. By fostering these bonds, the Initiative builds a sustainable pipeline of African women leaders ready to influence communities, institutions, and nations with confidence and integrity.
