We’ve got some news from the highly esteemed royal heir, Prince Williams.

Prince William just announced where the Earthshot Prize will be held this year. The 2024 ceremony will be held in November in Cape Town, South Africa! While we don’t yet know if Prince William and his wife will be there personally, Africa seems to hold a special place in the prince’s heart, so it’s a possibility!

Back in 2000, the young royal embarked on a big adventure! He took a year off from his studies to travel across Africa, lending a helping hand to projects protecting wildlife and conserving the environment. It was a chance to see the continent up close and personal.

Fast forward ten years, and Africa holds an even more special place in the royal’s heart. It’s where his love story blossomed! During a trip to Kenya with his then-girlfriend, Kate Middleton, he popped the marriage question.

Back in 2018, William took a work trip to several countries in Africa. He jetted over to Namibia, Tanzania, and Kenya. It wasn’t just a sightseeing tour. He had important meetings planned, tackling issues like protecting wildlife. Remember when he was the president of the Football Association back in 2010? That’s one of the reasons he was in Cape Town in 2010, where he attended the World Cup to fulfil his role duties.

The Prince of Wales launched the Earthshot Prize in 2020, and today, almost 400 amazing ideas from Africa are in the running for this year’s big prize! These projects show how clever and creative people across the continent are, coming up with solutions that can make the world a better place. This prize honours people who come up with amazing solutions to help our planet.

Cape Town’s ABALOBI was one of the cool projects that became a finalist last year! This amazing non-profit partnership between fishers and scientists helps both protect small fishing communities and give people buying seafood better information about where their food comes from.

Prince William jetted off to Singapore last November for the Earthshot Prize ceremony! It was the third time they held the awards, and the dazzling city-state hosted the party. William wasn’t alone; big names like actress Hannah Waddingham and Hollywood star Cate Blanchett joined him to celebrate the amazing environmental heroes.

In September, William took a solo adventure to New York City for the Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit.

The prince’s wife, Kate, joined him at the first award ceremony in London, way back in 2021. They also had another ceremony in Boston last year, in 2022! The couple is on a mission to make the world a better place, just like the Moonshot project did for space exploration!

A young Nigerian beauty queen, Ada Eme, is making waves at the prestigious 71st Miss World pageant in Mumbai, India. The 25-year-old Abia State native has secured a coveted spot amongst the competition’s top 40 finalists, thanks in part to her powerful and impactful performance during the head-to-head challenge.

This critical stage of the competition saw contestants address various global concerns, embodying the Miss World organization’s core principle of “beauty with a purpose.” Each contestant had the opportunity to articulate their personal projects aimed at tackling issues like environmental sustainability, healthcare, social justice, and education.

Eme’s project, aptly titled “Health for All,” tackled the critical issue of Schistosomiasis, a parasitic disease prevalent in tropical regions. Her compelling speech resonated with the judges and earned her a place in the top 40. Ada Eme also received a $5,000 award from the Miss World organization’s chairwoman, Julia Morley.

Driven by a personal conviction, Eme shared that her scholarship program beneficiaries were unfortunately forced to abandon their studies. This was due to the debilitating effects of schistosomiasis. This experience ignited her passion for making a tangible difference in the fight against this preventable disease.

Eme’s project focuses on providing crucial immunizations and treatment for children living in areas prone to the disease. This grassroots initiative aims to empower communities and safeguard the health and well-being of their most vulnerable members.

Confident and hopeful, Eme remains optimistic about her chances of securing the coveted crown at the grand finale, scheduled for this Saturday at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai, India.

This year’s Miss World pageant, which commenced on February 18th, boasts a vibrant tapestry of diverse participants. Alongside Nigeria, several other African nations are vying for the prestigious title, including Angola, Botswana, Cameroon, and many more.
