A new generation of young African leaders is emerging, driven by a passion for social change. The 2024 cohort of Ashoka Young Changemakers in Nigeria showcases the incredible potential of these young individuals.
One such changemaker is Eunice Omojola, founder of TechInEdu. Recognizing the digital divide in her community, Omojola is empowering young people with essential computer skills, breaking down barriers and opening doors to new opportunities.
Another inspiring young leader is Naomi Bamgbose, founder of Girls Techie. Bamgbose is working to close the gender gap in technology by providing mentorship, training, and community support to young women.
Joining them are seven other talented individuals, each with their own unique vision for a better future. From addressing mental health challenges to promoting sustainable development, these young changemakers are making a significant impact on their communities.
Ashoka Young Changemakers provides these young leaders with the resources and support they need to scale their initiatives. By empowering the next generation of innovators, Ashoka is helping to shape a brighter future for Africa.
