Living Authentically to Make a Positive Difference in the World
The main objective of the Pathfinders program (formerly known as the Talent Development program) is to equip young people with essential skills and opportunities that foster personal and professional growth, ultimately leading to successful career development and community impact.
Guided by the philosophy of ‘All for One, One for All’ the Pathfinders program utilizes character development, self-leadership skills development and the science of collective intelligence/group intelligence to enable young people address complex challenges facing humanity today.
This program is for young people who are committed to finding their path and pursue a meaningful, impactful and joyful life!
The Pathfinders program is structured around five key elements:
- Self-Leadership Skills Development – focuses on building 21st century skills as well as values and character development.

- Mentorship – pairs participants with experienced mentors to provide guidance and support.
- Internship – provides practical work experience in the Africa Unbound Center or other organizations to facilitate learning by doing.

Testimonials
“It was one of the best experiences that I had a chance to be part of. It helped me understand who I am as an individual and what tools I need to acquire in order to achieve the life (professional and personal) I want. This program taught me the key elements to live a fulfilling life and I feel so blessed to be part of this program which has paved the path to my future and changed my view of the present.” Gebriela Hilawe
“It was insightful. Introspective approach to who we are and the creativity within us; and ultimately how we can understand and harness it. Most the tasks, and the sessions allowed us, if not pushed us, to introspect. I wish the sessions could be longer.” Sofonias Nega
“It wasn’t a day to day normal experience it was a program that renovates you from within and let’s you live in the universe with the mentality of a leader. The first two lessons about self-awareness were amazing & it would be nice if it had an extra class.” Elias Weldu
