Nigeria is one of the youngest countries in the world. According to the World Economic Forum, over half of Nigeria’s population is under 30, with a median age of just 18.1.
Yet, for many young Nigerians, immense potential exists alongside unemployment and underemployment, limited access to quality education, insecurity and widening socio-economic inequalities.
At GS25, we asked: Is there really a Nigerian Dream?
But having a dream is only the beginning.
What role do young people themselves play in making that dream a reality?
At GS-26 Youth Conference with the theme: “The Dream We Choose” we are moving from aspiration to action, challenging young Nigerians to identify practical steps they can take, individually and collectively, towards the future they envision for themselves, their communities and Nigeria.
