An auditorium packed with more than 1000 people watched eagerly the presentation by Augustine Koranteng, representative of UNICAF in Ghana, at the Sunyani Polytechnic University, on the 4th of May 2017.

The UNICAF organisation continues to expand, and is now represented in 11 countries around the world, including Cyprus, Kenya, Nigeria, Malawi, Egypt, Uganda, Somalia, Ghana, Zambia, Mauritius and Jamaica.

UNICAF has received an honourable mention in the latest edition of inc. magazine, as one of six startups ‘rewriting education’. inc. magazine is famous for publishing an annual list of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the United States. The names of the companies are announced at an annual conference attended by important personalities from business and politics.

By 2050 more than half of global population growth is expected to occur in Africa, according to a United Nations report. After 2050, Africa is projected to be the only region where the population will continue to grow.

If you already hold an undergraduate Law degree, or if you are looking to widen your career options with a Master’s in law, you can now study online for the LLM Laws course, offered by one of the largest universities in the UK, USW. There is a generous UNICAF scholarship available for this course, which can cover up to 80% of tuition fees and give you the freedom to study in your own time, for an internationally recognised degree.

In an increasingly digital world, more and more of our time is spent online. The internet provides a wide range of information and possibilities, but it may also create difficulties, especially with regard to filtering out key information from websites. This is why UNICAF has created the UNICAF mobile application. Designed to complement the UNICAF website, the UNICAF mobile app enables users to have the most important information at their fingertips.

After a politically and economically turbulent year in 2016, 2017 is expected to bring greater opportunities for African economies which are not heavily based on commodities or crude oil exports. These countries may see robust economic growths of about 5%, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
