I am really pleased to inform you that we have had great response to our ONE award call for applications so far and already have a very diverse pool of applicants from all over the continent who are involved in various sector activities to advance the millennium development goals. There is still one week left to receive applications – until August 21st – so if you meet the requirements, or know of a group that does, we encourage you to get the application in quickly.

This is an excellent opportunity to showcase the great work that is being done on the continent, designed and driven by Africans for Africans. This is our way of rewarding these efforts and we hope you can help us spread the word!
