About A.D.U.

The African Development University (ADU) is an innovative, not-for-profit university whose mission is to prepare the most talented young people in Niger and Africa to design and drive the development of their nations as effective ethical leaders  in the public, private and not-for-profit sectors. A.D.U. is the first non-profit university located in Niamey, Niger, and the first institution to offer a world-class education to students from the Sahel region….

Become a Student

We warmly welcome new members into the ILIMI community each year, and we work closely with them to develop them into Ethical leaders and community change agents. 1000 people are not worth 1 young leader. Study and develop through a remarkable educational experience and community service. Any young person should have the fantastic and distinctive experience of attending A.D.U.

A.D.U. Advantage

A.D.U. is based on the premise that almost all the obstacles to Niger’s development can be associated with a lack of leadership. That’s why our students prepare for global leadership through bilingual learning and academic instruction. Our multidisciplinary program: modeled on the best learning materials at Harvard, combines the liberal arts with Management, Law and Technology.
