Origins of the Thabo MbekiAfrican Leadership Institute(TMALI)

TMALI is an institute of the University of South Africa (Unisa)

in partnership with the Thabo Mbeki Foundation (TMF).

TMALI owes its origin to discussions that took place between the then President Thabo

Mbeki and many of his peers about what he would do once he had completed his term as

President of South Africa. These discussions generated the view that over the decades Africa

had, through the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) and the African Union (AU), agreed

on a broad range of appropriate policies for the development and renewal of the continent,

including such areas as politics, human and people’s rights, the economy, social development,

women’s emancipation and development, human resource development, war, peace and

security, cultural development, the role of the media, international relations and peer review.

However, the observation was made that there was an obvious and destructive lag between

the adoption and the implementation of these policies. This was because Africa had not

developed a critical number of change agents who would act in each country to help ensure

the implementation of agreed policies. It was therefore agreed that the strategic deficit that

Africa faces is the insufficiency of the human capital it needs to realise its historic objective

to achieve its renewal. Former President Thabo Mbeki agreed that he would make the

necessary efforts to help address the strategic African human capital deficit and TMALI was

established to fulfil this commitment.

TMALI was formally launched in 2010 as a partnership between the University of South

Africa and the Thabo Mbeki Foundation.

What is the Thabo MbekiAfrican Leadership Institute?

TMALI is an institute of the University of South Africa (UNISA) in partnership

with the Thabo Mbeki Foundation. The principal purpose of the institute

is to train Africans for the political, economic, social and cultural renewal

of the African continent and its people, from a Pan-African perspective.

It is influenced by Afrocentricity and African-centred epistemologies and

methodologies within the context of Africa-wide policies agreed through

the Organisation for African Unity (OAU) and the African Union (AU).

To give expression to its overarching objective, TMALI is investing in

existing and emerging as well as creating new African thought leaders to

help ensure that adopted African policies are both accepted by the peoples

of the continent as well as facilitate their implementation to contribute

towards the empowerment of Africa’s people with a view to achieving

Africa’s Renaissance and Unity.

In the five years since establishment, TMALI has designed and offered

courses on a number of areas that are of relevance for the further

advancement of the renewal of the African continent. TMALI is exploring

the introduction of postgraduate diplomas in the various areas pertaining to

Africa’s development. TMALI is indeed growing, in order to fulfil its vision

and meet the expectations. Of importance are TMALI’s book series project

and the emerging scholars’ programme, within the ambit of TMALI’s new

research and innovation strategy.

TMALI also works with the Thabo Mbeki Foundation on major events such

as the Africa Day and the International Women’s Day, annually. TMALI

also collaborates with like-minded institutions on numerous aspects of its

overall academic, research and community engagement programme. Since

inception, TMALI has been part of the African Renaissance for African

Unity Annual Conference which brings African scholars and other eminent

Africans from all corners of the world. TMALI also regularly convenes

symposia, colloquia, seminars and conferences.

Governance

TMF-UNISA Board gives strategic oversight and guidance to TMALI, and is made up of

representatives of UNISA Executive Management and the Trustees of the Thabo Mbeki

Foundation.

The Steering Committee reports to the TMF-UNISA board and is made up of the

Vice-Principal: Academic, Teaching and Learning, and Vice-Principal: Research and

Innovation, the Head of TMALI; representatives of the Thabo Mbeki Foundation and a

Senior Representative of the Department of Finance.

An International Advisory Committee was set up in 2013, to advise TMALI and

assist in promoting TMALI’s activities and programmes.

development. Kreibich, Oertel and Wölk explain that, “Modern futures studies assume that the

future is not entirely determinable and that different future developments (‘futures’) are possible

and there is scope for design. They are based on the realisation that there are indeed a great

number of possible futures but that these are not arbitrary”.
