First Name(s): Stephen (Dr. Progress)
Last Name: Daniel
Country: Nigeria/Uganda
University: Uganda Christian University
1.     How did you get to hear about IHAV Foundation?
I was going through the internet for opportunities that could add on my experience and equip me on my quest to transform the African continent when I found about the IHav conference. I applied and luckily I was selected to attend.
2.    What motivated you to participate in the 2013 July conference?
 I was motivated to attend because the program was in line with my vision. I have a vision to see Africa transform into a first word continent by the year 2030 where every human ha equal opportunity to maximize their God given potential.
3.    Briefly explain how you benefited from the experience during the 2013 July conference.
I benefitted from this program as I got to meet with like minded youths from across Africa who are ready to take on the responsibility for transforming to continent to what it should be. I met with youths doing great things at the African Union in Addis, from Zimbabwe and other great African countries. I also got an opportunity to be featured on Ghana’s national TV to air my views on what should be done to transform the continent.
4.    Have you followed up with your team mates to see that your project is done and how have you managed that
 I would be sincere and say Yes and No. Yes I have been able to contact them after the program No because we have not started working on the project as a team but as individuals.  We have not been able to effectively manage the project effectively due to distance and lack of coordination.
5.    Given a second chance would you like to participate in the upcoming conference
Yes
6.    What did you like most about the conference
 The group discussions and project design.
7.    What would you tell those anticipating to apply for the 2014 conference
I would say go for it as it is worth the while. Come meet with other African youth and tie the knot together for the transformation of our continent. Nobody would build Africa for us better than ourselves and you have the key to that transformation.
