    Goals / Remit

    Ambitious Africa on nuori hanke, jonka tavoitteena on toimia siltana Afrikan ja Pohjoismaiden välillä. Ambitious Africa tähtää yhdististämään, inspiroimaan ja voimaannuttamaan nuoria ihmisiä, jotta heidän olisi helpompi tehdä yhteistyötä paremman tulevaisuuden puolesta.

    Ambitious Africa keskittyy ja tukee nuoria ihmisiä, antaen heille mahdollisuuden tehdä yhteistyötä, oppia toisiltaan ja olla aktiivisia osallistujia muutoksen keskellä sekä Afrikassa että Pohjoismaissa. Hanke tähtää hyvinvoinnin ja onnellisuuden lisäämiseen Pohjoismaissa sekä kautta Afrikan mantereen tukemalla korkealaatuista koulutusta ja paikallisen yrittäjyyden kestävän kehityksen edistämiseen. Ambitious Africa tukee myös hankkeita, jotka tarjoavat globaaliin sekä paikalliseen tarpeeseen reaalimaailman oppeja ja taitoja. Kannustamalla ja tukemalla nuoria yrittäjämäiseen asenteeseen johtaa positiiviseen muutokseen Afrikassa.

    Main EU files targeted

    Ambitious.Africa pyrkii tuomaan nuorten ja tekemisen kulman mukaan EU:n Afrikka strategiaan panostamalla kolmeen ydin alueeseen: Koulutus, yrittäminen ja viihde.

    Organisaatio haluaa myös edistää EUn ja Afrikan välistä yhteistyötä ja kauppapolitiikkaa sekä ratkaista ongelmia ilmastonmuutokseen ja kestävään kehitykseen liittyen.

    Complementary Information

    We have a few dozen of volunteers who work on different things in the organization, but the ammount of work differs from week to week and it's very difficult to pinpoint how much work each member commits to the organization of their professional time.

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
