Young leaders capture leadership's ripple effects in Kanju documentary

Abstract

The beginnings of change might not look like much. It starts, perhaps, with a hoe and a determination to clear a road, or some vegetable seeds and a passion for women's empowerment. A new documentary, The Spirit of Kanju: Leaders transforming Africa, created by graduates of the Mastercard Foundation Scholarship Program as part of an HSRC research study, showcases transformative leadership in action - and illustrates how seemingly small actions can have far-reaching ripple effects.
