The Future Awards Africa are a set of recognition awards of impact given by The Future Project (TFF) to young people, using their skills, talents, passion, zeals and interests to drive the African dream home. They are celebrated for their outstanding achievements,
The African dream, of course, is more than being the sought-after child at family meetings because you’re the child who made it; it’s giving Africa a voice and helping us secure a relevant space globally.
