Besides, 100 winners with the best results will get unique prizes: an original sweatshirt with custom atomic patches and a spacious tote bag with an atomic print. The list of winners will be published on the project’s website by November 17.

According to UN statistics, Africa is a continent of young people. 65% of the population is under 35 and almost 50% under 19, which means that Africa has tremendous potential to educate a new generation of talented, educated and ambitious people. At the same time nuclear energy holds immense potential for Africa and has the capability to address numerous challenges faced by the continent. As a clean, reliable and sustainable energy source, nuclear power can play a man role in ensuring energy security and boosting economic development.
