Win an all-expense paid trip to Russia from Rosatom Africa’s ‘Atoms for Africa Video Competition’

‘Atoms for Africa’ online video competition is aimed at creating lasting solutions to the growth of a nation’s economic, social and political sector through the use of nuclear technology.

The competition is open to students, entrepreneurs, innovators and young professionals aged between 18-30. Interested participants are required to submit an online video titled “How nuclear technologies can assist in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs) in Africa” documenting their findings and promote on Facebook.

The use of any video content obtained from a professional organization, university or third party is permitted but not above 50% of the original video.
