AmpliYouth Advocacy Academy

Educate. Empower. Amplify.

Who We Are

AmpliYouth Advocacy Academy is a youth-centred development initiative dedicated to grooming a new wave of changemakers across Nigeria and Africa. Founded by Ayotunde Aboderin, the Academy complements the mission of MUN Impact Nigeria by equipping young people with the tools, resources and platforms they need to lead meaningful advocacy, engage with global issues and forge lasting impact in their communities.

Our Vision & Mission

• Vision: A generation of integrity-driven young leaders who transform societies, challenge injustice and amplify the voices of the underserved.
• Mission: To educate youth about advocacy and leadership, empower them with practical skills and networks, and amplify their impact across Africa and beyond.

   Online and in-person programmes that guide participants through practical advocacy training, project design and leadership readiness.

Why It Matters

In a rapidly changing world—where the SDGs, climate justice, governance and human rights demand urgent attention—young people from underserved regions often lack a structured, high-quality platform to channel their potential. The Academy bridges that gap: it gives youth a voice, a roadmap and the confidence to act. By working with MUN Impact Nigeria, we deepen our focus on youth engagement, global issues and sustainable development.

Key Outcomes

• Equipped hundreds of youth with advocacy, leadership and campaign skills.
• Supported dozens of youth-led projects in communities, schools and tertiary institutions.
• Built a growing network of alumni, mentors and campus ambassadors driving positive change.
• Enhanced visibility of youth action across Nigeria, identifying a path for African-led advocacy innovation.

Phoenix Rising Project

The Phoenix Rising Project is a humanitarian and educational initiative under MUN Impact Nigeria that responds to the growing challenges faced by children and young people displaced by climate change and violent extremism across Nigeria. The project embodies the idea of “rising from the ashes”—restoring hope, rebuilding lives, and empowering the most vulnerable to create a better future for themselves and their communities.

Through education, mentorship, and community engagement, the Phoenix Rising Project equips displaced and at-risk youth with the skills, knowledge, and support needed to thrive despite adversity. The project provides learning materials, basic relief items, and safe learning environments to children in internally displaced persons (IDP) camps and conflict-affected communities. It also promotes climate resilience, peacebuilding, and social reintegration by engaging young people in constructive dialogue, civic education, and community-led action.

In partnership with local volunteers, schools, and government institutions, the project integrates Model United Nations and SDG education into its programs—introducing participants to global citizenship, diplomacy, and sustainable development. Many beneficiaries go on to join platforms like the AmpliYouth Advocacy Academy, where they develop leadership, storytelling, and advocacy skills to drive positive change in their communities.

Ultimately, the Phoenix Rising Project represents MUN Impact Nigeria’s commitment to building peace through education, empowering the displaced, and ensuring that no child is left behind due to conflict or climate crisis.
