About African Achievers International Awards

The African MDG Achievers International Awards is a not for profit program managed by The NILE African Development organisation a not-for-profit organisation. The awards mission is to generate greater understanding of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), to galvanize public support for their achievement, and to honour exceptional efforts to achieve the goals.

Through our efforts we:

•Shine a spotlight on those that are making exceptional progress and help generate public support for their projects.
•Rally and provide support for those who need assistance
•Highlight exemplars in the civil society community to promote the message that corporations and other organizations can "do well" by "doing good".
•Recognize the efforts of individuals and the members of the NGO community that are making exceptional efforts to honour their commitment to help achieve the United Nations Millennium Development Goals.
•Through recognition and fund development help support those smaller and individual efforts that are making an impact but do not have the reach to increase their success.

The African MDG Achievers Awards aim to:

Recognise, grow and nurture exceptional African individuals, groups, companies, institutions etc to enable them to achieve the greatest possible impact in their communities and also inspire more African people to become engaged in improving and create positive stories about Africa. These Awards are to demonstrate that there are people within our communities still achieving and are good role models. These awards are intended as incentives for many people in reaching their future GOALS and aimed at addressing the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and try to make it happen that they may shine.
