Apply for the Mandela Impact Forum 2025 in Cape Town

In the heart of Cape Town this November, a new generation of African changemakers will gather, not merely as attendees, but as architects of the continent's future. The Mandela Impact Forum (MIF) 2025, hosted by Ecovay, is now calling for applications, and with it, the chance to bring your voice to one of Africa’s most influential leadership platforms.

Mandela Impact Forum

Why This Forum Matters

Nelson Mandela once said that true leadership is built through courage, resilience, and unity. MIF carries forward that legacy. It’s a convergence of visionary Africans, young leaders, social entrepreneurs, policymakers, and activists who are already building inclusive solutions from Lagos to Libreville, from Nairobi to Nouakchott.

If you're shaping impactful ideas around social innovation, climate equity, digital inclusion, or youth empowerment, MIF 2025 is your launchpad, not just a conversation.

What You Can Gain

Ecovay is offering:

  • 20 Fully Funded seats
  • 30 Partially Funded seats

These include airfare, accommodation, access to all sessions, and a chance to connect globally. You'll be part of masterclasses, workshops, dialogue sessions, and networking aimed at scaling impactful ideas with real-world traction.

Who Should Apply

  • Young African visionaries (18–35 years) with a track record or bold idea in leadership, activism, entrepreneurship, or the arts.
  • Those ready to take their story from local to global and influence systems from within.
  • Africans across all sectors—urban, rural, formal or grassroots—are ready to shape the continent’s trajectory.

How to Be Part of It

  1. Submit your application at ecovay.org/mif-2025
  2. Be bold: share your story, your vision, your impact
  3. Deadline: 20 September 2025 
  4. Stand ready—this is where ideas meet mentorship, collaboration, and next-level visibility

MIF isn't just a conference. It’s proof that African youth leadership is no longer the future; it’s the now. This year’s forum in Cape Town invites you to join a community where change isn’t discussed; it’s built.

So, if you're ready to make your voice matter, start your MIF journey today.
