The Aga Khan Academy Mombasa yesterday celebrated its 13th graduation ceremony for 85 exceptional students who join a growing legacy of global young leaders. The article quotes its founder, His Highness the Aga Khan, who at the inauguration ceremony of the Aga Khan Academy Mombasa, said: “As the young men and women from this Aga Khan Academy, and over time from its sister schools, grow and assume leadership in their societies, it is my hope that it will be members of this new generation who, driven by their own wide knowledge and inspiration, will change their societies; that they will gradually replace many of the external forces that appear, and sometimes seek, to control our destinies. These young men and women, I am sure, will become leaders in the governments and the institutions of civil society in their own countries, in international organisations and in all those institutions, academic, economic and artistic that create positive change in our world.”
