FIST Africa, in collaboration with the Madiba Foundation and with the support of the MacArthur Foundation, is proud to announce the unveiling of the “I AM THE NEW NIGERIA” Campaign. This innovative project aims to inspire a new generation of Nigerians who are committed to building a brighter future for their country.
The Campaign will leverage the power of creative messaging and digital technology to instil core values like integrity, accountability, and respect for diversity among Nigerian youth. Through compelling campaign materials designed in various formats, the initiative seeks to:
- Promote Positive Values and Behavioural Change: Encourage responsible and patriotic attitudes, reducing negative behaviours such as crime and violence.
- Increase Civic Engagement: Motivate active participation in civic activities, including voting, community development, and volunteerism.
- Boost National Pride: Foster a strong sense of identity and belonging to Nigeria.
- Shared Ownership for a New Nigeria: Promote shared responsibility for the country’s progress, moving beyond blame-shifting.
