The mission of the Graduate School of Development Policy and Practice (GSDPP) based at the University of Cape Town (UCT) is to promote and inspire strategic public leadership in Africa. Part of the GSDPP is the Building Bridges programme which brings together emerging leaders from all over Africa towards promoting and building ethical public leadership, while establishing new networks of expertise and trust. This brochure presents the organizational profile and pillars of the intensive leadership residency programme. Inclusive development requires strong public leadership but in many instances in African countries, this is hampered by elite capture, corruption, and a lack of public accountability.Ford Foundatio
