MEET FRANCIS KOROMA
Academic & Policy Background
Francis Koroma is currently pursuing a degree in Political Science-Statistics at Columbia University, where his studies focus on international relations, diplomacy, and policy innovation. His academic work reflects a deep commitment to understanding how governments, institutions, and grassroots movements can collaborate to achieve sustainable development.
Before Columbia, Francis earned his Associate Degree in Business Management from the Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC), graduating with distinction. He also studied Computer Science and Data Systems, which gave him a strong technical foundation and analytical mindset.
This mix of policy, business, and technology shapes his cross-disciplinary approach to solving global problems — particularly those that intersect with education, youth empowerment, and sustainability. His long-term goal is to leverage political science and leadership training to influence policy frameworks that support inclusive growth and innovation in Africa and beyond.
Leadership & Nonprofit Work
As Founder and President of the Francis Koroma Foundation (FKF) a registered U.S. 501(c)(3) nonprofit — Francis leads a mission to empower youth through education, mentorship, and global leadership development. The foundation operates on the belief that young people are not just future leaders, but active changemakers today.
Under his leadership, the foundation has:
- Reached over 3,500 youth across four continents, including Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America.
- Awarded full scholarships and educational resources to high-achieving students from underrepresented backgrounds.
- Facilitated internship placements and leadership programs that help young professionals build career experience.
- Mentored students who have gone on to prestigious programs such as Yale Young Global Scholars, Berea College (USA), and Asia Pacific University (Japan).
FKF’s programs now include international youth diplomacy, entrepreneurship training, community development, and a global speaker series connecting young leaders with world figures. With 300+ volunteers across eight countries, the foundation has built a truly international network of youth-driven change.
