Netsebrak Leadership Conference (NLC) is Ethiopia’s yearly gathering for leaders and aspiring leaders who want to create lasting change. Join 300+ youth leaders, women leaders, government officials, civil society advocates, and innovators for three days of dialogue, collaboration, and action.

Lead with Purpose. Serve with integrity. Transform Ethiopia

#NLC IS Inspire. Collaborate. Lead.

Leadership is not just about titles; it’s about service, vision, and action. NLC is a movement bringing together Ethiopia’s most passionate leaders, peacebuilders, and visionaries for three days of deep dialogue, collaboration, and innovation. Expect inspiring speakers, practical strategies, and meaningful conversations that will challenge you to think differently and act boldly. By the end of the conference, you’ll leave not just motivated but ready to launch or strengthen projects that create sustainable change.

Young people and women are at the heart of Ethiopia’s future. That’s why NLC is intentionally designed to give them a seat at the table and the skills to lead. Over these transformational three days, participants co-create solutions to real-world problems, learn from experienced leaders, and form cross-sector partnerships that last well beyond the event. This is where your leadership journey accelerates, where your voice is heard, your ideas are valued, and your potential is unlocked.
