The CcHub Call for Ideas aims to collate creative ideas on how to solve the Nigeriaโs real issues in areas of governance, transportation, healthcare, education, food security and the environment.
According to CcHub, โwe believe that by engaging a community of progressive stakeholders (end-users, subject matter experts, government agencies, businesses, academics, civil societies etc.) who bring their creativity and knowledge to play we can co-create solutions to social challenges faced by the average Nigerian.โ
