About us
Established in February 2020, The Okwelians™ is a Think Do Tank of women and men whose mission is to build a community of ethical and responsible leaders committed to promote social innovation through ethical leadership.
We believe that by working together and pooling each other’s experiences and skills in a constructive, ambitious, and benevolent spirit, we can positively contribute to transform Cameroon, Africa and the world. It is in innovation, the ability to understand the complexity that surrounds us, and the solidarity that we want to anchor our actions.
The name "Okwelians," which comes from the verb "Okwele" (to learn in Duala), reflects our vision of leadership: leadership exercised with humility, discernment, and trust.
