The 5th Annual TeensThink International Essay Competition came to a remarkable close at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Ikeja, Lagos, bringing together brilliant teenage minds from across Africa in a vibrant showcase of innovation, critical thinking, and ethical perspectives on artificial intelligence and its impact on humanity.
Established as a transformative educational platform, the TeensThink International Essay Competition welcomed over 100 essay submissions from young thinkers in Nigeria, Liberia, Kenya, and Cameroon. With the 2025 theme, “Humanity and Artificial Intelligence: How Can a Blend of the Two Make the World a Better Place – A Teen’s Perspective,” participants were challenged to explore how emerging technologies can serve, rather than overshadow, the human condition.
From the impressive submissions, 16 finalists were shortlisted through a rigorous selection process assessed by respected teachers, educational consultants, and scholars. Judges evaluated the essays for originality, clarity, relevance, depth, and creativity.
