Lagos, Nigeria, 8 October 2026. The AMIR Fund for Education, Science and Technology has launched a new website at www.amirfund.org. The site sets out the Fund's initiatives, eligibility criteria, governance and impact in one place, and will host every future call for applications.
The launch follows the appointment of a dedicated Program Assistant in September 2026. The role supports programme management across partner institutions, tracks impact, coordinates events such as the annual Prize Giving Day, and manages the Fund's communications.
“As our programmes grow, people who apply to us and partner with us deserve clear information and regular reporting,” said Ridwan Sorunke, Founder and Trustee. “This website is where we will publish our criteria, our results and our next opportunities.”
The official contact for all enquiries is fund@amirfund.org.
