Deadline: 1 July 2015
The AfriAspire is inviting applications for the AfriAspire fellowship program. It is an initiative built around year-long social innovation projects that are implemented by selected passionate youths in Nigeria and supported by funders and private partners.
Fellows implement projects that can solve new or existing problems in a Public Primary School in their various communities. They are provided training and mentoring to help them grow. In this way, fellows develop their leadership skills, enhance their understanding of youth development, and build their non-profit management skills. In addition to a training program for acquiring leadership qualifications, the fellows will receive intensive support for external grant acquisition to fund their projects.
