Cabo Verde Leadership exists to contribute to a stronger, more united and more connected global Cabo Verdean community.
Cabo Verde is the territorial, historical and cultural root of a community that spans countries and generations. Its people, language, culture and shared history are central to the Foundation’s work.
The Foundation brings people, knowledge, talent and networks together to create opportunities and advance collective progress. Leadership means taking responsibility for that shared future.
Cabo Verde Leadership was founded by Élisabeth Moreno, Gil Semedo, Gilberto de Barros and Maria José Lopes, whose paths span business, culture, finance, law, public service and international networks.
The Board brings these founding perspectives together with experience in science, health, education, media and community engagement.
Meet the Board ↗The Foundation is bringing together expertise, collaborators and resources around three connected pillars: the Leadership Institute, Global Connection Platform and Digital TV & Media.
The immediate focus is to develop these pillars through complementary projects and partnerships. Programme formats and opportunities to participate will be shared as they are confirmed.
Explore the three pillars ↗Cabo Verdean identity is at the centre of the mission, with participation open to people and institutions who share its purpose. The Foundation values independence, the exchange of knowledge and responsibility across generations.
Its long-term ambition is to build an institution that serves generations to come, adapting its methods while remaining faithful to its mission.
