TGLC is a network of principled, change-driven servant leaders pioneering Africa’s development. Our five Impact Labs bring leaders together to build practical responses to Africa’s pressing issues.
By uniting diverse professionals, innovators, entrepreneurs, faith leaders, and community builders through focused sub-networks, TGLC raises SDG-focused leaders to address the continent’s most pressing challenges through ethical leadership and collaborative solutions.
That spirit of collaboration comes to life in our Impact Labs. Every member develops a distinct project with their own team, and each Lab chooses collective work its members build together. These two commitments give leadership formation a practical setting for learning, support, and service.
Five Labs connect related fields. Find the one where your gifts meet Africa’s needs, and a community of leaders ready to build alongside you.
Build ventures, services, and useful technologies for economic and practical needs.
Develop learning and practical skills through teaching, training, and access to useful knowledge.
Develop projects for community care, health, inclusion, and rights advocacy, including faith-led service.
Use storytelling, visual art, music, and other creative media to inform, connect, and serve communities.
Improve built places, resource use, and environmental conditions through practical sustainable development projects.
Every Lab gives leadership formation a practical setting for learning, support, and service.
Every member develops a distinct project with their own team. You may join before defining one: write a one-page brief, recruit your team, and use the TGLC Vision Roadmap to plan a first test. Aim for a tangible result within 30 days of joining. Your project need not be a business.
Each Lab chooses collective work that fits community needs and its members’ capacity. Members name a project lead, share tasks, and agree on evidence of progress. Joining another member’s team, or the Lab’s project, does not replace your own.
