Building leaders of integrity for the Kingdom
ILF Eswatini is the national affiliate of the International Leadership Foundation, a movement founded in 2003 that has equipped more than 26,000 leaders.
A global movement with a commitment to Eswatini
The International Leadership Foundation (ILF) was founded in 2003 by Prof. Delanyo Adadevoh. Its conviction is simple: lasting change in a nation begins with a change of mindset in its leaders, and personal transformation is the foundation of societal transformation.
ILF has equipped more than 26,000 leaders, including heads of state and prime ministers, through values-based seminars, coaching, youth programmes and forums that bring leaders from different sectors together.
ILF Eswatini brings this work to the Kingdom. We serve leaders in government, faith communities, business, education and civil society who want to lead with integrity and build an Eswatini that future generations will be proud to inherit.
