Instead, paNhari acts as a catalyst and bridge: equipping young people with transformative tools and connections so their ideas can scale.

Our Story And Impact

From a student idea to a Pan‑African movement

Featured Story: Clive Nyapokoto’s Innovation.
  • Our Story:
    paNhari began as a student-led initiative at the University of Zimbabwe and has grown into a pan-African network that bridges knowledge, action, and leadership. The name “paNhari” means “the peak” — reflecting our commitment to helping young people reach their highest potential. Two decades later, that founding belief still drives everything we do.
  • Our Impact:
    Across 18+ countries, paNhari has reached and supported more than 50,000 young people — directly through our programmes and indirectly through our alumni and partner networks. Together, these young people have helped unlock over $15M in resources for African youth development, demonstrating what becomes possible when you back young people with the right tools, connections, and belief.
  • Featured Story:
    Clive Nyapokoto, a paNhari alumnus, invented a vermi-aquaponics system that recycles waste, saves 90% of the water used, and now serves over 800 farmers. His story is one of thousands across our 18+ country network — a living example of what paNhari’s blend of mentorship, training, and access to capital makes possible when young people are trusted to lead.
