Professional History: Fabrice is a governance, education, and peacebuilding practitioner with over a decade of experience advancing peace, social innovation, and education across the Sahel and Great Lakes regions. He is the Founder of the Africa Peace Initiative (AfriPI), a pan-African movement responding to the continent’s “Triple Crisis” of exclusion, dignity, and mindset through three core pillars: diplomacy, leadershift, and social cohesion.

AfriPI seeks to “peace the pieces” by connecting high-level diplomacy with grassroots realities, cultivating transformative leadership, and rebuilding trust across divided communities. Central to Fabrice’s work is a deep belief in dialogue as both a conflict-resolution tool and a foundation for Africa’s development. Drawing inspiration from traditional African under-the-tree dialogue practices, he has dedicated his life to creating inclusive spaces where communities can come together to listen, engage, and break barriers of all kinds.

Fabrice also serves as a Director leading Teach For All’s work in francophone Africa, focusing on addressing education inequity in fragile and conflict-affected contexts. Through the African Young Leaders Forum (AYLF), he has mentored over 5,000 young leaders across the continent. Through AfriPI and his broader work, Fabrice is committed to contributing to a more peaceful, just, and cohesive Africa.
