The Canon Collins Network

An extraordinary group of leaders from across southern Africa.

Meet the Alumni

With nearly 4000 alumni from 40 years of scholarship programmes, the Canon Collins Alumni Network includes hundreds of outstanding lawyers, educators, scientists, business leaders, health-care providers, engineers, and executives of non-profit organisations who are now leading change in their communities and the wider region. If you are a graduate of one of our scholarships, or a scholarship administered by the Trust, then you are a member of an extraordinary alumni network of leaders from across southern Africa.

A group of alumni and scholars gathered at the start of 2024 to think together on the purpose and work of the network. They developed the network charter, which is available here. It’s a guide to the activity and support that is in place for all members of our network.
