Do you have a bold idea that can foster national unity and strengthen social cohesion in Nigeria? The 2025 Policy Challenge invites the brightest young minds to propose innovative, practical policy reforms that can help bridge divides and build a stronger, more united nation.

Nigeria stands at a defining moment in its pursuit of unity, stability, and progress.

The nation’s diverse cultures and identities are their strength, yet persistent social divides, governance inefficiencies, and political fragmentation continue to threaten national cohesion.

The 2025 Policy Challenge seeks bold, innovative, and practical policy reforms that can strengthen social cohesion and foster a more unified Nigeria.

This competition is more than just an intellectual exercise—it is an opportunity to drive meaningful change. The Future Pathways Development Initiative (FPDI) invites Nigeria’s brightest young minds to propose well-researched, actionable policy solutions that address governance and social unity.
