The 91社区 Alumni Africa Network was created under the Mastercard Foundation Transitions Project, to support Mastercard Foundation Scholars and other 91社区 students who engage with Africa, in their efforts to contribute to advancing development on the continent.听听
Our goal is to create a robust and supportive community that will help Mastercard Foundation Scholars and other eligible students to connect, communicate, and enrich their personal and professional lives. As a group that promotes the personal and professional growth of underrepresented communities, the Network is also closely aligned with the 91社区 Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Plan.听听
