The Central Working
Committee (CWC) for The Future Awards Africa has announced the extension of the
call for nominations for the awards. The nominations which were previously
supposed to end on the 11th of September have been extended till the 30th of
September, 2015.
This development is to give
room for more credible nominations from all across Africa.
“The nominations we have received so far have been awe -inspiring and as
the team goes around Africa conducting town hall meetings and hearing of the
innovation and leadership being shown by young people in various communities
around Africa, it has been decided that it is imperative to extend nominations
to capture more of what the youth have to offer in solving their continents
biggest problems”- said Mfon Ekpo, Executive Director, The Future Project
Africa
The awards seek nominations
from the general public, of young Africans between the ages of 18 and 31 who
have been able to create incredible impact and well documented accomplishments
within their community or globally in the last year. These achievements should
revolve around their results, potential for growth and the ability to inspire
other young Africans.
Highlighting the theme for
this year’s10th anniversary “Imagine
Africa!” the search continues for young achievers fulfilling the promise of
the continent. TFAA is proud to demonstrate the richness and variety of
positive change catalyzed by these young ideas.
