🗣️The Active Citizens Awards categories are now open!

Across Nigeria, people are showing up every day through civic activism, community service, solutions journalism, climate action, disability rights, health advocacy, inclusion and diversity, transparency, and the kind of work that keeps communities moving forward.

From the people asking hard questions to the ones building solutions and creating change where they are, the awards recognise the impact being made across different spaces every day.

Visit awards.civichive.org to explore the categories and nominate that one person or organisation you think deserves this award.
