ELF-Africa's vision is pursued through three programmatic pillars namely, Governance & Civic Engagement, Economic Empowerment, and our signature Leadership Development Program.
Purpose of Consultancy
ELF-Africa, in partnership with the John Templeton Foundation is implementing VirtueLead, a new project that aims to immerse young leaders in a rigorous exploration of targeted character virtues, such as love, hope, integrity, humility and courage; while emphasizing critical leadership practices and mindsets such as Ubuntu, African Dignity, Healing and Forgiveness, Listening and Centering Self.
The Fellows, ages 25–35, competitively selected from across Kenya, are active citizens demonstrating commitment to drive bold change in their communities and organizations evidenced through their involvement in community initiatives, professional roles, entrepreneurial ventures, or other leadership experiences.
The VirtueLead program intends to employ a multifaceted approach to learning which will include:
- Rigorous character training through workshops, seminars, and interactive exercises;
- Immersive experiences such as community projects and outdoor expeditions to deepen their understanding and integrate these virtues into their lives
- Real-world leadership challenges where participants will have the opportunity to apply their learning by implementing community-based initiatives, mentoring younger leaders, advocating for social and environmental justice and leading teams or organizations; and
- Capstone projects where Fellows, as individuals or groups develop and implement projects that seek to resolve social or societal challenges.
The expected outcome of VirtueLead is that these young leaders will demonstrate a deeper understanding and embodiment of the targeted character virtues, mindsets, and practices. By observing and analyzing the impact of these experiences on the leaders' personal and professional development, we will gain a deeper understanding of how character development can be effectively integrated into leadership.
To realize VirtueLead's objectives, ELF-Africa seeks a specialist to develop a comprehensive, high-quality training curriculum that is rooted in African contexts and adaptable across Kenya's diverse socio-economic and cultural landscape.

· Integrate ELF-Africa's Mentorship Model and Alumni Engagement Model, linking Fellows with seasoned mentors for ongoing guidance and ensuring curriculum activities and follow-up mechanisms leverage the experience, networks, and peer-learning opportunities offered by the ELF alumni community.
Scope of Work and Responsibilities
