ACEP Next Generation Resource Governance Leaders Program 2025

The Next Generation Resource Governance Leaders Program is an internship that intends to balance a dose of theory with real-world application and equip participants with the requisite multi-disciplinary intellectual development, practical skills, and research abilities to think in more innovative ways to solve complex governance challenges. The Program is also a strategy to build a pipeline of young pan-African leaders to provide a sustainable path for good governance.

The core of the ambition is to train and nurture young people in an enabling working environment through a structured capacity development process. These will include training on transformational leadership development, professional and career development, and digital communication and technology skills. Essentially, beyond the technical training in resource governance, interns will be exposed to the tools and guidance needed to set and achieve realistic personal and professional goals, coupled with well-rounded and ethical leadership training.

Responsibilities

NextGen Leaders will deliver timely and quality evidence-based policy analysis, training, and advocacy through strong collaborations, ensuring that ACEP remains a thought-leader in Africa’s energy and extractive policy space. Specifically, the NextGen Leaders will:

  • Contribute to writing research reports and policy briefs on the energy and extractives sector of Africa.
  • Support stakeholder engagement activities on ACEP’s outputs and position on energy and extractive sector issues in Africa.
  • Contribute to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of annual programs.
  • Support organizational development activities.
  • Support in resource mobilization efforts, including grants and proposal writing.
