Heinrich Böll Stiftung (hbs) Green Academy for Nigerians 2026

The Heinrich Böll Stiftung (hbs) Nigeria Green Academy, is an annual programme that offers young and aspiring civil society activists, journalists, academic scholars, artists and social entrepreneurs the opportunity to enrich their knowledge, ‘tool-box’ and networks to tackle some of Nigeria’s most pressing governance and development challenges.
