Mr. Emmanuel Edudzie (Ghana)
Raised with the Jesuit notion of service to mankind, Emmanuel has always been interested in society’s injustices and problems, as well as what goes into determining and implementing solutions for such situations. As an undergraduate in 2003, he was elected to UNEP’s Youth Advisory Council as one of two Africans that would represent the voices of youth within the UNEP hierarchy. Since then, Emmanuel has been engaged at various levels of the United Nations, including the UN Commission on Sustainable Development, UN Youth Programme, and UN-Habitat, all of which gave him substantial opportunity to develop an understanding of international development processes and to augment his knowledge of emerging social issues, barriers, and gaps in service, and as well as experience in evaluating a programme’s effectiveness in addressing these issues. Emmanuel holds an MA in Governance and Sustainable Development at the Centre for Development Studies, University of Cape Coast. He earlier completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Ghana with a major in Political Science. Emmanuel joined Worldview Impact in 2008.
