We’re proud to launch Voice Among the Stars: Leading With Purpose—the very first virtual leadership and space awareness program by Moonshot Africa, in collaboration with global non-profit Cosmic Girls Foundation.
🚀 Starting 26th August 2025, this free 4-week program is specially designed for high school girls in Grades 10–12 (Ages 16 - 19) across Africa. It runs Tuesdays and Thursdays from 18:30 to 19:30 via Zoom.
If you're a girl who dreams big, speaks boldly (or wants to), and is curious about the world beyond Earth—this program is for you.
Why We’re Launching This Now
The space industry is evolving—and Africa has a voice to add. Yet, too often, young African girls are left out of the conversation.
At Moonshot Africa, we believe that leadership begins with confidence, exposure, and community. That’s why we've partnered with Cosmic Girls Foundation, an international organization dedicated to empowering girls through space and science.
Together, we’re building a program that connects inspiration with action—helping young women find their voice and lead with purpose.
What the Program Includes
Each week focuses on a bold new theme:
✨ Week 1: Space 101 & Space in Africa - Explore Africa’s rising role in the space industry and why it matters to you.
🎤 Week 2: Finding Your Voice - Build confidence, presence, and the power to speak up.
💪 Week 3: Resilience in Action - Learn how to lead through challenges and bounce back stronger.
🚀 Week 4: Final Showcase - Work in teams to present your big ideas on “How Space Can Help Achieve Quality Education.”

Girls in Grade 10, 11, or 12 (Ages 16 - 19)
