It is a platform that avails local innovators with an opportunity to tell how exactly they would make their community–and beyond–an even better place. The challenge, which is new to Nigeria as a country, would be judged by both the public and a panel of local Judges. Both judge parties would vote for the ideas with the most potential.

Google.org pairs each winner with a package of strategic support, funding and Google volunteers.

Eligible nonprofits and social enterprises submit their proposals to create economic opportunity in Nigeria after which Google and partners will review applications and select 12 finalists. From the 12 finalists, the public will have three weeks to vote for their favorite idea.
