The mission is to create an environment suitable for youth to actively participate in the national development agenda and innovate and scale up solutions to socio-economic challenges in their communities.
A future where populations shape their own destiny.
At the Vanguard Economics Foundation, our core values guide every aspect of our work, shaping how we engage with youth, communities, and partners to achieve meaningful impact. These values are:
We believe in empowering individuals at all levels to take initiative, embrace responsibility, and inspire others to create positive change
We are committed to delivering high-quality outcomes, setting ambitious standards, and continuously striving for improvement.
We prioritize empathy, respect, and inclusivity, ensuring that all our decisions centre on people’s well-being and dignity.
