The ACFR Diplomatic School was founded in 2023 by Jean Narcisse Djaha, Founding President, Chairman & Global Chief Operating and Partnership Officer of the African Council on Foreign Relations.
Located inside the African Council on Foreign Relations, the ACFR Diplomatic School nurtures and cultivates the development and growth of young African leaders to help solve some of the most pressing diplomatic and economic challenges that Africa faces today.
The ACFR Diplomatic School will equip African youth and communities with diplomatic education, skills, and thought leadership. Our goal is to instill transformational knowledge to transform future generations and improve lives. Our school is transformational and revolutionary.
The ACFR Diplomatic School inspires and supports high-impact young leaders to solve critical problems in their home countries.
Our four-part motto, EDUCATE, INSPIRE, CHANGE, REVOLUTIONIZE, reflects the vision and mission.
The ACFR Diplomatic School is both a platform and a resource incubator that allows young people to develop a sustainable diplomatic background capable of helping them thrive in today’s fragmented world. We host young people with different backgrounds, titles, skills, ages, and nationalities to learn from others, grow in experience, build their professional network, and position themselves as agents of transformation.
The ACFR Diplomatic School provides young leaders with substance from business, government, and the nonprofit sector with a tremendous opportunity to engage with a global pool of experts and deepen their professional networks.
The ACFR Diplomatic School experienced leaders and career diplomats to the school as ACFR Diplomatic Senior Fellows to educate and empower our young scholars in a variety of diplomatic subjects.
