About GenVoices

Generational Voices (GenVoices) is a growing global movement of 18-40
year olds supported by a dynamic group of older mentors & contributors.
It was conceived as a means to convert the online and offline energy of
young Nigerians into practical efforts towards national development. It
is clear that without positive participation in governance and policy,
this generation will be availed little opportunity to make widespread
and definitive impact - so we focus on birthing innovation, fostering
dialogue, encouraging acts of service and driving change. GenVoices will
raise, support, fund and inspire projects, platforms and individuals to
deliver social, technological, economic and political (S.T.E.P)
solutions to our country’s problems. With a humble sense of
responsibility and maturity, we will guard the hopes of young Nigerians
as we help to build this nation. For more information, visit
