Africa Youth Card opens across the continent
Registration is open to young people in all 54 African Union member states.
Africa Youth Card is open. Anyone aged 15 or over in any African Union member state can register, and from then on apply to programmes with a profile they only fill in once.
The first programmes come from AYC itself and from partner organisations in Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, Kenya and Uganda. More are being reviewed.
Registering is free, and every programme listed here is free to apply to. Nobody from AYC will ever ask a young person to pay to apply, to be shortlisted, or to receive a certificate.
