The APN Essay Contest was created to give a platform for African youth perspectives. As we work towards (re)shaping the narratives around African giving, it is imperative that youth voices are centered. Our first APN Essay contest was hosted in 2021 and focused on drawing inspiration from Africa’s youth on the power of African philanthropy in championing social change. The 2nd APN Essay Contest was in 2022, and we focused on the theme “the role of African philanthropy in addressing community challenges”, and received the highest number of entries since the launch of the contest.

The theme for the 3^rd APN Writing Contest is: “African Philanthropy Practice in the age of ongoing Climate Change.”
