I am also a board member of a local and international organisation. I am also well-versed in sustainable development goals and how they can be applied in the education sector.

I also received the outstanding young innovative Africa Award for promoting the actualisation of SDG’s active citizenship, youth participation, community service, good governance and policy advocacy in Africa.
