AfOx joins the University of Oxford to run the UKRI GCRF Accelerating Achievement for Africa’s Adolescents Hub. By 2050 Africa will be home to half a billion teenagers. Despite the incredible opportunity that such a vibrant pool of young potential presents, many of these teens will already be trapped in a cycle of poverty, violence, low education and poor health, by the time they reach adolescence. This new Hub aims to help them achieve their goals and aspirations.
