Help Empower Africa’s Future Leaders – Support the LIDDO Leadership Camp 2025!
Campaign Goal: $50,000
Location: Maseru, Lesotho
Dates: June 30 – July 4, 2025
About Us:
The LIDDO Leadership Camp is a youth-led initiative that aims to empower the next generation of African leaders. As a project of the LIDDO Initiative Africa that was founded in 2022, the camp provides young people from across Southern Africa with the skills, knowledge, and resources they need to create meaningful change in their communities.
In January 2024, we successfully hosted the inaugural LIDDO Leadership Camp in Maseru, Lesotho. Over five days, 17 passionate young leaders participated in seminars, workshops, and interactive discussions on pressing issues like climate change, leadership, and civic engagement. The camp equipped participants with essential leadership skills, fostered a strong sense of patriotism, and inspired them to embark on social impact projects to transform their communities.
2024 Outcome:
"The camp equipped participants with essential leadership skills, fostered a deeper sense of responsibility and patriotism, and inspired them to engage in impactful social projects within their communities."

Building on the success of 2024, we are expanding the camp in 2025 to include more participants from across Southern Africa and beyond, ensuring we continue to inspire, equip, and connect young people who will drive Africa’s future.
Why We Need Your Support:
The LIDDO Leadership Camp is a life-changing opportunity for youth, many of whom lack access to the resources and networks needed to reach their full potential. By investing in these young leaders, you are investing in the future of Africa. However, hosting this impactful camp comes with significant costs, including:
- Accommodation and meals for participants
- Transportation to and from the camp for youth across the region
- Venue and event costs for seminars, workshops, and cultural activities
- Educational materials and resources for participants
- Our goal is to raise $50,000 to ensure that we can provide a high-quality, inclusive experience for all participants.
Every dollar you contribute will help us:
- Bring together over 100 young leaders from all 16 Southern African Development Community (SADC) member states
- Offer world-class leadership training and mentorship from experts in various fields
- Provide an inclusive platform for collaborative problem-solving and community impact projects
- Foster a spirit of unity, empathy, and innovation among Africa’s next generation of changemakers
