2020 SDG PIONEERS  Programe/Award Application Opens

United Nations Global Compact

UNITED NATIONS, New York, 17 February 2020 — As part of its Making Global Goals Local Business campaign, each year the UN Global Compact recognizes a class of SDG Pioneers — business leaders, who are using business as a force for good to advance the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDG Pioneers play an important role in drawing attention to the SDGs and how responsible businesses can contribute to their achievement.
As part of the  Global Compact Local Networks spanning all continents will launch a national search for professionals who are committed to achieving the Global Goals on 17 February 2020
will culminate in to the selection of global SDG Pioneers who will be recognized during the UN General Assembly high-level week in New York in September 2020. The worldwide search for SDG Pioneers among companies participating in the UN Global Compact will build on national searches by 23 Global Compact Local Networks earlier this year, and each winner of a national round will automatically compete in the global round along with other candidates.

AFRICA FOOD PRIZE-NOMINATIONS NOW OPENS

Africa Food Prize 2020 Nominations Now Open – Nominate Your Candidate

The Africa Food Prize 2020 committee is inviting nominations for individuals or institutions who are delivering improved food security; catalyzing innovation and transformative change in Africa’s agriculture sector. Do not miss out on the opportunity to bring that leading farmer to the limelight.

  

About The Africa Food Prize

The Africa Food Prize is a preeminent award that recognizes outstanding individuals or institutions leading the effort to change the reality of farming in Africa. It recognises an individual whose farming story has changed from the struggle to survive to a business that thrives. It celebrates Africans who are taking control of Africa’s agriculture agenda.

Besides that, it also puts a spotlight on bold initiatives and technical innovations that can be replicated across the continent to create a new era of food security and economic opportunity for all Africans.
It began in 2005 as Yara Prize, organised by Yara International ASA in Norway. Then, it began as a way to honor achievements in African agriculture. Next, in 2016, Yara Prize was renamed the Africa Food Prize in a bit to give it a distinctive African identity and ownership.
Today, it awards a total price of $100,000, a diploma and a trophy. More than one person can receive the award, but not more than two can be a winner. If shared, each winner will receive equal prize money ($100,000 divided into two).
Hurry up to nominate here.

THE GREAT HEALTH BENEFITS OF DRINKING BLACK TEA REGULARLY

10 Evidence-Based Health Benefits of Taking Black Tea

Aside from water, black tea is one of the most consumed beverages in the world.

It comes from the Camellia sinensis plant and is often blended with other plants for different flavors, such as Earl Grey, English breakfast or chai.

It’s stronger in flavor and contains  less caffeine content than coffee.

Black tea also offers a variety of health benefits because it contains antioxidants and compounds that can help reduce inflammation in the body.

Here are 10 health benefits of black tea, all supported by science.

1.Richest Antioxidant Properties-
Black tea contains a group of polyphenols that have antioxidant properties. Consuming antioxidants may help decrease the risk of chronic diseases and  improve your overall health.
2. A  Boost to Heart Health--Black tea contains flavonoids, which are beneficial for heart health. Studies have found that regularly drinking black tea may help reduce the risk of heart disease.
3. Black Tea Lower “Bad” LDL Cholestero-LDL and HDL are two types of lipoproteins that carry cholesterol throughout the body. Too much LDL in the body can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. Studies have found that black tea may help reduce LDL levels.
4.  Improve Gut (Stomach) Health--The gut houses trillions of bacteria and the majority of your immune system. Polyphenols and antimicrobial properties found in black tea may help improve gut health and immunity.
5.  Help Reduces Blood Pressure-High blood pressure can cause many health complications. Drinking black tea on a regular basis may help decrease systolic and diastolic blood pressure. However,there are more researches going on to clarify more on this .
6. Help Reduce the Risk of Stroke-Stroke is the second leading cause of death globally. Fortunately, in many cases, it can be prevented. Studies have found that black tea may help reduce the risk of stroke.
7. Black Tea Lowers Blood Sugar Levels--Insulin is a hormone that is secreted when you consume carbohydrates-sugary substances. Black tea is a great non-sweetened beverage that can help improve metabolism and  the use of insulin and reduce blood sugar.
8. Help Reduce the Risk of Cancer-Black tea contains polyphenols, which may help fight cancer cells in the body. Although consuming black tea will not cure cancer, it may help decrease cancer cell development. 
9. Black Tea Improve Focus and Stamina-Black tea can help improve focus due to its content of caffeine and an amino acid called L-theanine. This amino acid increases alpha activity in the brain, which can help improve focus,stamina and alertness thus even help the memory to function. This property in black tea makes it very useful and helpful in tackling men health-poor libido, poor performance and even prostate cancer in men. 
10. Easy to Make--Making black tea is simple and takes only a couple of minutes. You can use either tea bags or loose leaves and adjust the taste to your preference.

The Health Potentials are just too numerous to ignore

Black tea is a great option if you are looking for a low-calorie, non-sweetened beverage with less caffeine than coffee or energy drinks. 

It has a strong, unique flavor and contains plenty of antioxidants, which can provide several health benefits. These include improved cholesterol, better gut health and decreased blood pressure and sugar.

Best of all, it’s simple to make and can easily be found at many stores or online.

If you haven’t done so before, consider trying black tea so you can reap its numerous health benefits.

THE URGENT NEED OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY IN A DEPRESSED WORLD ECONOMY

Now that is is clear- THE WORLD ECONOMY IS GOING DOWN AGAIN due to too much dependency on oil as a mono economic item.

  Here then is the crucial and most important subject and concern if the world must be prepared to eradicate POVERTY, HUNGER, INJUSTICES and overcome  the challenge of youths restiveness, and associated violent extremism for a peaceful and sustainable world. Let us GO DIGITAL to create more and authentic opportunities for the masses of the world.
  Thus, to this purpose and intent, I have prepared the manuals and blue-prints on: E-SKILLS FOR THE DIGITAL ECONOMY  and HOW TO MASTER DIGITAL MARKETING TODAY. These and other resources could be accessed and obtained through soft copies to your emails or digital downloads
