About the Fellowship
Inspiring Tomorrow’s Innovators with Free Market Values
The Free Market Fellowship is a dynamic, Pan-African leadership program created by Face of Liberty International to identify, train, and empower young Africans who are passionate about liberty, free enterprise, good governance, and human flourishing.
Over the course of several weeks, selected fellows participate in a series of virtual masterclasses, peer collaborations, expert mentorship, and hands-on advocacy training, all leading to the implementation of a capstone project that addresses real-world problems through a free-market lens.
Our mission is to build a new generation of principled leaders equipped to drive change, challenge the status quo, and spark economic and social freedom in their communities.
Our vision is to ignite a movement of liberty-driven change-makers across Africa who champion freedom, dignity, and prosperity for all.
Our Objective
Educate fellows on the principles of individual liberty, limited government, and free markets.
Equip them with practical skills in communication, policy engagement, leadership, and project execution.
Empower fellows to launch real-world initiatives that improve lives and foster sustainable freedom.
Expand a Pan-African network of liberty advocates, mentors, and partners.
