RGF aims to conduct its business with honesty and integrity and expects employees, volunteers, mentees, mentors, and stakeholders (including partners and sponsorship organisations) to maintain the highest ethical standards. RGF recognises the obligations it has towards the entire community.
RGF seeks to fulfil those obligations according to the original principles laid out in the Nolan Report on standards of behaviour in public life. These principles are set out below and represent our core values:
Selflessness
Employees, volunteers, mentees, mentors, stakeholders (partners and sponsorship organisations) of RGF should take decisions solely in terms of the public interest. They should not do so to gain financial or other material benefits for themselves, their family, or their friends.
Integrity
Employees, volunteers, mentees, mentors, stakeholders (partners and sponsorship organisations) of RGF should not place themselves under any financial or other obligation to outside individuals or organisations that might influence them in the performance of their official duties.
Objectivity
In carrying out public business, including making public appointments, awarding contracts, or recommending individuals for rewards and benefits, employees, volunteers, mentees, mentors, and stakeholders (partners and sponsorship organisations) of RGF should make choices on merit.
Accountability
Employees, volunteers, mentees, mentors, stakeholders (partners and sponsorship organisations) of RGF are ultimately accountable for their decisions and actions to the public and must submit themselves to whatever scrutiny is appropriate to their office.
Openness
Employees, volunteers, mentees, mentors, stakeholders (partners and sponsorship organisations) of RGF should be as open as possible about all the decisions and actions that they take. They should provide reasons for their decisions and restrict information only when the wider public interest clearly demands it.
Honesty
Employees, volunteers, mentees, mentors, and stakeholders (partners and sponsorship organisations) of RGF have a duty to declare any private interests related to their public duties and to take steps to resolve any conflicts arising in a manner that protects the public interest. Any conflict must be notified in writing to RGF and updated as appropriate.
Leadership
Employees, volunteers, mentees, mentors, stakeholders (partners and sponsorship organisations) of RGF should promote and support these principles by leadership and example.
At RGF, our goal is to work collaboratively with our various stakeholders to help some of Africa’s young and talented graduates fulfil their career aspirations, including start-up aspirations and entrepreneurship.
OUR STRATEGIC PILLARS
Skills Acquisition & Development
RGF aims to connect mentees’ training with work placements, internships, and employment opportunities to enhance their skills, competencies, and capabilities. This approach benefits local businesses, communities, and creates new employees, securing a talent pipeline.
Entrepreneurship
RGF aims to leverage our global network of partners to provide young graduate entrepreneurs with an integrated package of financial and non- financial support to assist them in becoming business leaders and in starting and growing sustainable businesses that can scale and provide a return on investment.
Education
At RGF, we seek to deliver enhanced education with an emphasis on developing a collaborative and cooperative environment that is responsive to the needs of young people and the circumstances in which they live, in order to appropriately equip them for involvement in social and economic life.
