Background

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

It is with great excitement and optimism that I invite you to join us at the 2025 JCI Africa and the Middle East Conference, to be held from 21st of May to 24th of May 2025 in the vibrant city of Durban, South Africa.

In a world that is constantly evolving and facing unprecedented challenges, it is more important than ever for us to come together, share our knowledge, and ignite the spark of innovation. Our theme for the conference is “Ignite Purpose, Drive Change” encapsulates the essence of leadership that goes beyond mere management or authority, emphasising the importance of vision, empathy and action. It invites young leaders to step into their roles as change agents, inspiring others and creating a ripple effect of positive impact that extends far beyond the conference itself. Your participation is about being part of the solution and global movement dedicated to driving positive change. Together, we can inspire innovation, share our expertise, and build a brighter future for all. Our conference agenda is inspired by our theme and JCI tagline that says “Developing young leaders for a changing world”.


It is packed with opportunities for learning, networking and professional growth. Durban is known for its social life, we are definitely going to give you the best entertainment, cultural tours, allowing you to experience the rich heritage and vibrant spirit of KwaZulu-Natal in a true South African way.

Durban, known for its stunning coastline, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality, provides the perfect backdrop for our gathering. It is a city that embodies diversity and innovation, making it an ideal location for us to explore new ideas, forge meaningful connections, and create impactful solutions.

We look forward to welcoming you to Durban and to an inspiring and transformative conference experience. I quote a line from a song by an Award-winning, Durban kwaito singer, Professor ft. Tzozo, “Pakhishani, Pakistani, ziphi’ ikhwama, siye Durban, Woze Durban…” which simple mean, pack your bags, we going to Durban, come to Durban”
