Nigeria Green Academy

The Nigeria Green Academy is an annual programme that offers young and aspiring civil society activists, journalists, academic scholars, artists, and social entrepreneurs the opportunity to enrich their knowledge, ‘tool-box’, and networks to tackle some of Nigeria’s most pressing governance and development challenges.

Over time, the Nigeria Green Academy aims to cultivate a community of young Nigerians who align with the objectives of the foundation as they advance in their respective professional careers. Additionally, the goal is to foster robust connections among them, creating a forum conducive to substantive discussions, idea generation, opportunity exchange, and mutual support.

It is a vehicle to build a community of young Nigerians who align with the foundation's agenda.

Working with a mix of formats such as self-reflection exercises, ask-X-everything opportunities and advocacy skill sessions, the Green Academy offers participants the opportunity to discuss and develop their vision for Nigeria’s future, think outside of the box of how to achieve it, and generally enrich their knowledge, ‘tool-box’ and networks.
